Joburg back in the hands of failing ANC
5 December 2019
The Democratic Alliance (DA) notes the election of the ANC's Geoff Makhubo as the Executive Mayor of the City of Johannesburg as a sad event for the people of Johannesburg.
It is a tragic situation which mirrors the day Nelson Mandela Bay was taken away from a Coalition for Change by a Coalition of Corruption.
Makhubo's appointment marks the regression of three difficult but proud years for the people of Johannesburg and a City that was passionately led by the DA, ACDP, IFP, Cope and FF+.
As with the Nelson Mandela Bay Municipality, we can now expect to see all the good work by the DA-led administration being undone.
