Urgent call to restore eKYC system for SRD grant beneficiaries

In a dramatic turn of events, the chairperson of the Portfolio Committee on Social Development, Bridget Masango, this week issued a clarion call for the SA Social Security Agency (Sassa) to reinstate its suspended Electronic Know Your Client (eKYC) system.

This plea comes amid growing concerns as thousands of eligible beneficiaries are left unable to verify their identities, hindering their access to vital Social Relief of Distress (SRD) grants.
