The eThekwini Ratepayers Political Movement says it will use its two council seats to scrutinise municipal spending, challenge poor service delivery and hold the administration accountable.
The eThekwini Ratepayers Political Movement (ERPM) has secured two seats in the eThekwini Municipality elections, with the party's chairperson, Asad Gaffar, expressing gratitude for the achievement. Gaffar emphasized that the seats represent an opportunity to hold the municipality accountable for declining service delivery, poor governance, and lack of transparency.
He pledged to use the positions to scrutinize municipal decisions, demand accountability from public officials, and advocate for responsible financial management and improved infrastructure maintenance. Gaffar stressed that the ERPM was not founded to pursue political titles or personal advancement but to serve residents and ensure a transparent, financially responsible, and responsive municipality.
