- It came to our attention as Eastern Cape Bonafides Forum recently that stands against corruption conducts occurring in all government spheres from the Provincial department, Metro Municipalities, District Municipalities, Local Municipalities and other government Entities. And upon became aware of this particular matter we raised it with Mr. Eddie Scheum who was not cooperative at all.
