On Tuesday, the ANC caucus in Ekurhuleni issued a veiled warning to the EFF, saying its MMCs should not undermine the functions of their colleagues and interfere with their portfolios.
The party also called on mayor Sivuyile Ngodwana to become the centre of power in the municipality and that his MMCs must not enter into a competition with him.
Dunga added that Ekurhuleni had failed to pay invoices valued at over R200m. He said this had serious implications on the ability of the city to deliver services. Dunga’s statement was amplified by a tweet from EFF leader Julius Malema, who said: “Since the EFF occupied the office of the MMC for waste management, we can only confirm the existence [of] 32 trucks, meaning these thieves before us have stolen 71 trucks of the city.
“Parties that are holding executive responsibilities in the mayoral committee should appreciation the available internal means of seeking accountability, information and clarity, in order to reflect accurately and to proposed justifiable interventions. “Operational deficiencies must be properly comprehended and articulated by leaders of political parties in Council, especially by the deployed MMCs, who by the way enjoy the privilege of obtaining information about the accurate state of their respective portfolios.
