TZANEEN - The Limpopo premier says he was misquoted about the controversial R2.4-million shack project unveiled in Tzaneen last week.
Stan Mathabatha said he knew that the shelters he unveiled were temporary, not permanent low-cost housing.
Mathabatha said from what he was told, he didn't find the cost of each shack outrageous.
The premier was responding to the outrage over sub-standard shacks unveiled last week.
40 temporary houses were handed over to residents who found them of inferior quality.
