Opposition parties reacted with disappointment to Tshwane Mayor Cilliers Brink's second SOCA.
Opposition parties reacted with disappointment to Tshwane Mayor Cilliers Brink’s second State of the City Address , delivered earlier today. They say Brink’s SOCA is simply a repeat of the same promises delivered a year ago.
The City received yet another poor audit outcome for the 2022/23 financial year although it slightly improved from adverse to qualified. To help restore the City’s finances, Brink urged residents to pay for services. The mayor also reminded Council that electricity and water infrastructure remain the backbone of service delivery for the municipality.
“He failed to highlight what will be done in the townships,” says Joel Masilela, ANC Tshwane caucus leader.
