Auditor-general Kimi Makwetu will on Wednesday release Covid-19 relief fund audit findings.

The Covid-19 relief funds have been a contentious issue in the country with many South Africans expressing dissatisfaction about being excluded from financial support from the government as a result of maladministration.

The government reprioritized R500bn to help South Africans during the pandemic, but concerned citizens have criticised the state, saying the funds were spent irregularly.

The train, which brings health-care to the doorsteps of vulnerable communities, had previously travelled to every province in South Africa except Gauteng.
