"And if I talk about the employees, the first thing is that the employees of a municipality must understand they are there to deliver a service to the public," he said.The party's long-held view to abolishing affirmative action is entrenched in its proposals to look at municipal staff. He said appointments must be based on merit.
However, he said he understood there are indigent households, and there was free water and electricity in most parts of the country."But, ladies and gentlemen, there are too many people who can afford their water and electricity bills, but they don't pay. And then we say: cut off the power." "They say BEE stands for black economic empowerment. I say no, you're completely wrong. It stands for black elite enrichment."
