ANC must be given the mandate to run Johannesburg: Morero
The City of Joburg is currently governed by a coalition known as the Government of Local Unity
Dada Morero, the nominee for Johannesburg's mayoral position from the African National Congress (ANC), has emphasized that his party must be bestowed with the mandate by voters to govern the City of Johannesburg. The city is presently under the administration of a coalition called the Government of Local Unity. Morero engaged with SABC News reporters during the ANC party's manifesto launch, held in Diepsloot, a suburb north of Johannesburg.
Other candidates vying for the mayoral nomination include Frank Chikane, a veteran ANC member, and Loyiso Masuku, the party's regional chairperson for Johannesburg. Morero asserts that the progress they have made under his tenure as Executive Mayor should be sufficient evidence of their capabilities. He states, "The work we have been doing in the inner city, the enforcement of by-laws, and our efforts to stabilize the city's financial status, which is creating positive rights and achievements in recent months, have demonstrated our ability to include the private sector in delivering over 10,000 housing opportunities in Riverside."
