Mixed reactions as parties respond to Morero's election as Joburg mayor
ActionSA, the DA and the ANC responded to his election with mixed reactions.The three largest parties in the Council have responded to Dada Morero 's election as the new mayor of the City of Joburg with mixed emotions.
"Given the merry-go-round of mayors, who have tried and failed to hold together Johannesburg's unwieldy and ungovernable coalitions, it is time to recognise that the 2021 local election delivered such a fragmented result that it has proved almost impossible to put together a workable government," she said.
However, Sasabona Manganye, ANC Greater Joburg Regional Secretary, said under Morero's leadership as new mayor the party is committed to rebuilding a city that will bring government closer to the people and accelerate service delivery. "We envision a city governed by citizen-centric leadership, where residents' voices and needs are heard and prioritised. We are dedicated to delivering efficient and effective governance to the people of Johannesburg, driven by capable leaders who prioritise their needs and quality of life, while enhancing the capacity and quality of our service delivery.
