The DA’s Midvaal mayoral candidate Peter Teixeira has warned that the days of councillors being on the municipal payroll but never on the ground are over.
Teixeira made the pledge during the launch of his mayoral campaign which was attended by party leader John Steenhuisen in Sicelo township, in the Vaal, on Saturday.
He said in the first week of his administration, the councillors would go for mandatory training and capacitation induction. “This manifesto is more than an offer to the people of Midvaal. It is my sacred vow to represent every one of you. It is my commitment to serving every child, parent, teacher, housewife, street -sweeper, doctor and farmer. It is my pledge to work with you to get things done to build a better future for our children.“Since being announced as the DA mayoral candidate, I wake up each morning with a renewed sense of excitement and purpose for the future of Midvaal and its people.
He said his team was ready to take Midvaal to the next level: protecting jobs, promoting livelihoods and creating prosperity for all who live in it.
