JB Marks Collapse: DA calls for full details of administrative action
15 May 2019
The Democratic Alliance (DA) has been reliably informed that JB Marks Municipality will be placed under administration, this follows years of mismanagement, corruption, and collapse of service delivery.
This action, a week after elections, and years of disorder, is well overdue.
The DA will write to the Municipal Manager, requesting full disclosure of the terms of the municipality being placed under administration and the plan of action detailing how the municipality’s functionality will be restored.
The DA has long warned about the collapse of the municipality under the poor leadership of Mayor Kgotso Khumalo. We have twice attempted to table motions of no confidence in the mayor but the ANC chose to rally around a failing mayor and municipality.
