LISTEN: 'There is no crisis with SASSA': Zuma
President Jacob Zuma says there's no crisis with next month's payments of social grants.
While answering questions in parliament he was asked by the DA's Mmusi Maimane whether Social Development Minister, Bathabile Dlamini, would be held accountable and whether he would remove her from her position.
Zuma was quick to insist a person cannot be punished for a crime they haven't committed.
On Wednesday, the Social Security Agency of South Africa asked the Constitutional Court to allow it to extend its contract with Cash Paymaster Services - to make sure social grants are paid out on the 1st of April.
