‘Joburg needs own Madlanga moment,’ Zille says as she vows corruption crackdown [VIDEO]
Zille urged residents to hand the party a 50% + 1 majority, warning that Johannesburg could not afford another unstable coalition government.
DA mayoral candidate Helen Zille claimed that political rivals of the Democratic Alliance (DA) are attempting to mimic the party's campaign as the party gains support ahead of the Johannesburg local government elections. Accusing opponents of promising to fix the city's issues, Zille emphasized the DA's past record of delivering results in Cape Town and other DA-run municipalities.
She urged voters to give the DA a 50% + 1 majority to avoid another unstable coalition government. Zille pledged to investigate corruption within the municipality and restore law and order by addressing issues such as cable theft, illegal dumping, and criminal syndicates. She also promised greater transparency in city contracts and stronger protection for whistleblowers.
