GOOD WILL VOTE AGAINST “PLACEHOLDER” MAYORAL CANDIDATE IN TSHWANE TODAY
28 February 2023
Tshwane has been in free-fall for years, culminating in millions of irregular expenditure and the collapse of services and infrastructure across the metro under DA Mayor Randall Williams.
The GOOD Party will nonetheless support the DA candidate, Cilliers Brink, when the council elects Williams’ replacement today, because the last thing Tshwane needs is the kind of political manipulation and instability that led to the appointment of a lame-duck, or “placeholder”, mayor in Johannesburg.
Tshwane councillors must work in the best interests of the people of Tshwane, and the people of Tshwane’s best interests are not served by unstable coalition circuses of personal and political agendas.
Starting today, the councillors must focus on putting the City back on a stable path, and leave the pursuit of their own narrow personal and political interests behind them.
