The Fight to Fix Ekurhuleni and End Rampant Criminality Will Intensify
Press Statement by Cllr Xolani Khumalo
ActionSA Ekurhuleni Mayoral Candidate
Following a brief appearance at the Palm Ridge Magistrates Court and being granted bail, full focus turns back to the communities of Ekurhuleni so that we can continue the fight to fix this city and reverse the rot that has left many residents without reliable water, refuse collection, basic services and a city ravaged by brazen criminality.
Today’s events are a deliberate distraction from the real work of restoring dignity and safety to residents abandoned by an incompetent and corrupt government, with news reports today once again revealing the extent of the criminal capture of Ekurhuleni.
We will keep fighting to fix Ekurhuleni, and any frivolous attempt to stop this work will only show how urgent and necessary it is to intensify our efforts. This fight is for residents who are tired of empty promises and demand real action. Our work will continue until residents have running water, working infrastructure and communities that are safe from crime.
Thank you to every South African who showed up today. It is only with your support that the fight to rid our communities of crime and restore their dignity will be won.
