The people of Tshwane can’t afford an ANC-EFF puppet mayor or his new toys
3 March 2023
The DA in Tshwane notes that the City’s new Executive Mayor, a puppet of the ANC and EFF, is wasting no time in demanding perks and luxuries for himself - made worse by the reality that the people of Tshwane simply cannot afford it. This has become the signature modus operandi of the coalition of corruption in other captured municipalities.
Reports suggest that Executive Mayor Makwarela has requested at least four official vehicles and eight bodyguards. All at the expense of the people of Tshwane.
Such blatant quid pro quo, cadre-like benefits expose those who seek them as small-fry accomplices to the ANC-EFF’s capture of local government.
It is particularly grating that the Executive Mayor’s security entourage will now seemingly outnumber eight to one the size of his party caucus – COPE having only secured a single seat in the Tshwane City Council.
