FF Plus puts municipal reform at the heart of election manifesto
The party's leader is expected to address members and supporters when he unveils the manifesto
The Freedom Front Plus (FFPLUS) aims to address the challenges faced by dysfunctional municipalities through its upcoming manifesto for the local government elections in Pretoria. Scheduled to launch their platform on Saturday morning, the party promises practical solutions to fix the current state of local government in South Africa.
Party leader Corné Mulder, who is set to present the manifesto in Pretoria, emphasizes the urgency of the situation, stating that municipalities must work for their residents. In the 2021 local government elections, FFPLUS secured 221 council seats, a significant increase from 67 seats in 2016. Mulder believes that the FFPLUS has a clear roadmap for delivering on these promises, pointing out that local government has been a major failure in the country, causing immense suffering for residents.
The FFPLUS intends to introduce new policies and directives to steer local government in a more effective direction, with the ultimate goal of improving the lives of South Africans.
