ActionSA has condemned the Democratic Alliance (DA) for allegedly prioritising service delivery along racial lines in the City of Tshwane.
This comes as former Tshwane mayor and DA councillor Randall Williams revealed this while addressing the media this week.
FORMER TSHWANE MAYOR SAYS DA USES RACE TO PRIORITISE SERVICE DELIVERY
While addressing the media, Williams said the DA blatantly prioritises service delivery to white residents – at the expense of other racial groups in the municipality.
Williams said his former party instructed him to direct service delivery complaints from white residents in the metro to recently ousted mayor Cilliers Brink who was a member of Parliament at the time.
Williams who was elected mayor in October 2020 resigned in 2023 and was replaced by Brink who served as the capital city’s first citizen for 18 months.
WHO WILL BE THE NEW MAYOR?
Following Brink’s ousting on 26 September, the council is expected to convene this coming week to elect a new mayor. ActionSA leader Herman Mashaba said his party will field current deputy mayor Nasiphi Moya, and according to reports, the ANC will field Kgosi Maepa.
The ANC and ActionSA worked together to oust Brink via a motion of no confidence. It has yet to be determined which party the new Tshwane mayor will come from. However, Mashaba said they would support an ANC candidate.
