For our COO, Zipho Mdluli the opening of Bona House in KuGompo City (formerly East London) is a tribute to the blood, sweat and sacrifices of those who paved the way before us.

He reflects on what this achievement means, not only for Bonakude, but for every young Black child who needs to see that success is possible, that dreams are valid and that legacy can be built.

Poor public sector audit outcomes are not simply a compliance issue - they reflect deeper challenges in institutional capability and operational discipline.

In this latest opinion article, Prosper Mutambirwa AGA(SA) Senior Manager: Consulting at Bonakude, explore why audit regressions persist and what is needed to achieve sustainable improvement.

The focus must shift from audit compliance to institutional discipline - strengthening financial management, internal controls, records, skills and accountability.

Ultimately, clean audits should be the outcome of getting the basics right, not the objective itself.
