Description: Two years ago in Lebowa there were no school textbooks. But between March 1986 and September 1989 the Lebowa Education Department paid out R98 million to booksellers for books and stationary. So where were the books? A recent enquiry into the Lebowa Education Department found out that people who worked for the Lebowa Education Department also owned bookshops. These shops received the biggest orders to supply schools with books. But the books never got to the schools. When the enquiry did a spot check, they found 300 000 new books lying unused in storerooms and schools!
