While the CEO and the DDG maintained that the Service Centre is used as a training and resource centre for the local and surrounding communities, the community contended that they had no access to it. The community claimed that the only people who are benefitting from the Centre are the CEO, his family and those that he likes. The community felt that with the 2 to 3 million rands Parliamentary Grant that Ncera Farms (Pty) Ltd receives, the Service Centre should be open to all instead of a select few who are nominated by the current management of Ncera Farms (Pty) Ltd. Furthermore, the community laid serious charges of corruption against the CEO of Ncera Farms (Pty) Ltd., Mr Stylianou, and all those involved in the setting up of the Centre, including some government officials who were involved in the settling of the farmers on the Ncera state farms.
