First address by Premier Alan Winde upon his inauguration
22 May 2019
It is a great honour and privilege to have been sworn in as Premier of the Western Cape today by Judge President Mr John Hlope.
This is a day we have worked long and hard for, and I would like to say thank you to every single voter, and to my party, the Democratic Alliance, for the confidence and trust they have placed in me to lead the provincial government for the next five years.
I would also like to thank my family for their unending and unwavering support on this journey.
In our election manifesto, we made pledges to the residents of the Western Cape. These include a focus on the economy and jobs, ensuring that we make this a safer province and fixing public transport.
