ActionSA Tshwane Region welcomes the newly reconfigured City Of Tshwane Caucus Leadership. We believe that the new leadership will lead the caucus to greater heights

Today, a historic ActionSA-sponsored motion before the Johannesburg City Council was passed to initiate the process of integrating residents who receive their electricity supply directly from Eskom under City Power. This is particularly important for residents of Soweto, who have been neglected by Eskom for far too long and subjected to illegal credit management practices.

ActionSA’s motions of no confidence in the Mayor, Speaker, Deputy Mayor and Chief Whip of the KwaDukuza Municipality in KwaZulu-Natal will finally serve before Council. These motions would pave the way to the removal of the ANC from this municipality and its replacement by a multi-party coalition.

In light of the recent order handed down by the Honourable Judge Makume in the South Gauteng High Court on 19 August 2022 and the subsequent government gazette banning the transportation and movement of cattle for 21 days, ActionSA finds the ruling to be impractical and detrimental to the livestock, game and fibre industries in South Africa.

Today, ActionSA President Herman Mashaba returned to Kgetleng Rivier, North-West. On his first visit, he met a local farmer who has done exceptional humanitarian work in the community, Wilhelm Roche. Loved by many, the community asked Willie to stand as a Councillor in the 2021 Local Government Elections. Whilst not an aspiring politician, Wilhelm agreed to stand as an Independent Candidate, with the hopes of being in a stronger position to help the community. He won the Ward with 54% against the ANC and has since served as a Ward councillor in the Municipality of Kgetleng Rivier

ActionSA notes with grave concern the seizure of assets worth millions of Rands by the Sheriff of the Court yesterday, 25 August 2022. This was proven by numerous videos verifying assets being removed from eThekwini Municipal offices and the publication of the High Court Order of South Africa Warrant of Execution in the matter.

ActionSA has today been informed that a Special Council meeting will be convened to consider the forensic report requested by ActionSA some time ago. ActionSA will now write to the Executive Mayor of Tshwane, Randall Williams, and the Speaker to urgently convene this special sitting of Council considering the people of Tshwane have waited almost two decades.

Having reviewed the judgement, and with due respect to the role of our courts and the historical origin of the song, we believe that the protection of any song that calls for violence against any group of South Africans is a price too high to pay for free speech. To that end, we are pleased that this matter has been taken on appeal.

ActionSA Ekurhuleni Caucus yesterday tabled a motion to allow the City to begin the process of reclaiming hijacked, abandoned and dilapidated buildings. The motion was supported by all parties represented in Council, with the exception of the Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF).

On Tuesday, 23 August 2022 ActionSA noted with deep concern social media visuals of Limpopo MEC of Health, Dr Phophi Ramathuba, chiding a bedridden patient allegedly from Zimbabwe.

ActionSA calls on the eThekwini Municipality to urgently address the sewer crisis that continues to trouble the city. This crisis is made evident by the unending beach closures due to high levels of sewage bacteria (E-coli) in the water.

South Africans have once again refused to be co-opted into an attempt to disrupt the economy by rejecting calls for an ill-conceived national shutdown. The South African labour force has chosen to stand up for South Africa and its economy instead of participating in the political theatrics of a beleaguered Tripartite Alliance.

On Saturday, 20 August, ActionSA Councillors made a joint effort to meet with the Community of Wolmer in Pretoria North.

The people of Tshwane deserve responsible government with sound stewardship of tax payers’ money and the multi-party coalition remains committed to providing a viable alternative to failed ANC government
