MEC Maile misleads the public yet again
9 March 220
The Democratic Alliance (DA) has noted the content of the press statement by Gauteng Cooperative Governance and Traditional Affairs (COGTA) MEC Lebogang Maile, as well as the social media postings by the Gauteng Provincial Government on Sunday 8 March 2020 that he has submitted a letter to the City of Tshwane Speaker, Katlego Mathebe, to inform her of the dissolution of council and the implementation of Section 139.
The DA has confirmed that neither Mathebe, nor any of her officials within her private office have received such communication from Maile.
The supposed delivery dates of such notices, as mentioned in the various press releases is misleading and untrue.
The MEC is not following due process in terms of the constitution and continues to mislead the public while creating confusion within the administration.
