Limpopo Premier Stan Mathabatha has instructed the provincial agriculture and land reform department to urgently resolve tension brewing over the unaccounted R48 million at Zebediela Citrus Estate.
Once the largest producer of oranges in the Southern Hemisphere, the estate was returned to the Bjatladi community under the land reform process in 2003.
Mathabatha’s instructions for a resolution came after the department initially indicated that it “could not enter the space”, and was satisfied with the affairs of the CPA. We will attend the meeting [with the department] and report back on what transpired there to find a way forward.
