JOHANNESBURG - Phalatse goes up against incumbent John Steenhuisen for the position that will steer it through national elections next year. If successful, she’s promised to transform the party’s narrative as a ‘white party’ into an inclusive one reflecting the true spirit of the DA.“One of the biggest things that the DA needs right now is growth. We have a trusted brand of governance, there’s no dispute as to the fact that where we govern we govern well," she said.
"I’ve been mayor in the City of Johannesburg, before I was mayor I served as the MMC. Before I joined politics, I worked for public service."I believe I possess the experience that is required to take the DA forward having led a nine-party coalition in the City of Johannesburg, a very complex coalition in very turbulent times.* eNCA's Aviwe Mtila reports.
