Justice Alliance of SA launches new platform to help the public fight corruption

Submitted by: MyPressportal Team

NGO, Justice Alliance of South Africa (JASA) has launched Expose It, a new platform for South Africans to take action and unite against corruption.. 

Expose It uses reports of bribery and corruption collected on its website and USSD phone app to fight corruption on every level within public service organisations including; government departments, political parties and parastatals.

As a socially driven movement, Expose It relies on citizen reports: the more incidents are reported, the more hotspots are exposed for our legal team know exactly where to take action. 

The reporting process is simple, free and user friendly, making Expose It open and accessible to all members of the South African public on our mobile friendly website or even on old cell phones by dialing the free USSD number *134*1105#. Incidents of corruption can be safely and anonymously reported - from bribery, back-handed deals and bullying to abuse of power.

Unlike many other corruption organisations, Expose It’s legal team of experts is dedicated to taking legal action and act on hotspots exposed by pubic reports on our platform. Through JASA, they have the support of the Hawks, Crime Intelligence, the National Prosecuting Authority and Public Protector to help ensure cases are prosecuted whenever there is appropriate evidence. 

To spread the word galvanise support, Expose It has started a popular online protest by calling on all South Africans to create a protest poster against corruption and posting it to social media with the hashtag #exposeit. 

Expose It is a JASA project.
