Premier Makhura has big and expensive dreams for bankrupt municipalities; must take action against corruption
5 July 2019
The SOPA by Gauteng Premier, David Makhura, was mainly a disappointment and lacked direction.
It is disappointing that a person with so much political experience would tell his executive committee to table a feasible plan within a hundred days while the province has already been going about its business for sixty days. Government does not come to a complete standstill every five years when a new term commences.
Makhura's plan for how he is going to develop the biggest economic centre in South Africa lacked substance.
The Premier has big and expensive dreams for municipalities that, according to him, should technically be placed under the administration of the Gauteng provincial government due to misappropriation and corruption.
