'Don't remove mayors without my approval,' Mbalula warns ANC provincial leaders
Fikile Mbalula has written to ANC provincial leaders to warn them about removing mayors willy-nilly without his approval.
"We have noted with concern reports that provincial executive committees in certain provinces have removed mayors and appointed other mayors without following the necessary processes," wrote Mbalula. According to the ANC, for someone to be eligible to be a mayor, they must possess a tertiary qualification, have at least five years of local government experience or any other experience from government, or leadership at an executive level in any non-government institution.We remind comrades that any proposal to remove a mayor should be communicated to the secretary-general, with a detailed motivation, which the provincial office bearers will be requested to present to the national officials.
