DA announces its candidate for Joburg Mayor

19 November 2019

The Democratic Alliance (DA) is proud to announce Funzela Ngobeni as the DA candidate for the position of Executive Mayor of the DA-led City of Johannesburg as it prepares for the 2021 Municipal Elections.

Councillor Ngobeni has been serving as a member of the city’s Mayoral Committee (MMC) for Finance since January 2018 as well as the Leader of Executive Business in the Council and has been a long-serving Councillor prior to that.

The DA has been through a rigorous selection process before appointing him and is confident that should he be elected as the Executive Mayor of the DA-led City of Johannesburg on 28 November 2019, that he will continue the good work done by outgoing mayor Herman Mashaba by streamlining services in order to improve the lives of all residents.

We congratulate Funzela on his election, we trust that he will be elected to serve the people of Johannesburg as Executive Mayor and we commit our support to him unconditionally in the pursuit of creating One South Africa for All.
