Mayor Makhubo Seeking to Line the Pockets of ANC Cadres While the City Crumbles
ActionSA notes reports that Mayor Geoff “Gupta” Makhubo is forging ahead with plans to convert fixed-term contract political support staff into permanent employees. This follows the expansion of the number of political staff employed in the City through the deployment of ANC cadres to high paying positions in his office, and that of his MMCs.
This issue has progressively gotten worse since 2005 and reached a height of media attention in 2017. Despite this, nothing has been done that has improved the situation for the residents of Hammanskraal and Rooiwal.
