Juju Valley residents divided as Polokwane declared hung council
Polokwane resident's hopeful as municipality declared hung following the local government elections
In the Juju Valley region of Polokwane, residents are divided following the declaration of a hung council following the municipal elections. Limpopo is now home to a total of 10 such municipalities, where no political party has secured an outright majority. The residents hope that a coalition government will lead to better service delivery.
Meanwhile, residents from Extension 76 also express a desire for improved service delivery. A local resident remarked, "I am happy that the municipality is now hung. We voted to demonstrate our genuine need for improved services. We lack basic amenities like water and live in deplorable conditions. We seek communities where our children can thrive peacefully.
Our expectations from the elected representatives are clear: we demand development." This update on Limpopo results was provided by IEC’s Nkaro Mateta.
