IFP launches North West LGE campaign
The party says it will be campaigning on topical issues such as the empowerment of women.
The Inkatha Freedom Party (IFP) has inaugurated its local government elections campaign in Rustenburg, North West. The party, armed with their national five-point election manifesto, plans to address pressing issues such as women's, children's, and disabled persons' empowerment. Muziwenkosi Gwala, the party's national chairperson, attributes their resurgence in the province to the dire state of service delivery.
Gwala asserts that the lack of basic amenities like water and roads stems from a lack of political will rather than natural calamities. The electorate in the North West province is eager to have their voices heard. They desire councillors who will foster spaces for youth engagement beyond idle pursuits, such as arts. Furthermore, residents are in dire need of clinics closer to their homes, as current facilities are inaccessible due to long distances and lack of transportation for the elderly.
