The Democratic Alliance (DA) in North West will write to the Convenor of the Inter-Ministerial Task Team (IMTT), Minister Nkosazana Dlamini-Zuma, requesting her to present a plan of action on how services will be restored to municipalities across the province.
This follows the appearance of Minister Dlamini-Zuma before the Ad-Hoc Committee on Section 100 Intervention on Monday, where she conceded that ANC political infighting is paralysing service delivery within municipalities, but that she will “leave it at that”.
Her careless attitude about the water shortages, overflowing sewage and poor waste management is characteristically callous, but the fact that her apathy is not called to order, also reflects the ANC leadership’s disregard of the suffering North West residents have to endure as a result of the ANC’s failure to govern.
