DEFENCE Minister Thandi Modise insists there is no need to upscale the security detail of ministers after she and two other senior cabinet members were allegedly held hostage by military veterans. She said the country had a massive public sector wage bill and should redirect resources to the needs of the country. Modise said the government had been prepared to listen to the military veterans and it could assist them, but it did not plan to drop the charges against the 56 veterans who were arrested. |
