As workers in Mafube Local Municipality raise their frustration and engage in protest due to unpaid salaries, the Democratic Alliance in that municipality said it moves to expedite compliance to restore salary payments.
The party said it is urgently escalating Mafube’s ongoing salary crisis to provincial CoGTA leadership and the NCOP to ensure immediate compliance with outstanding financial reporting requirements. “This action aims to restore overdue salary payments and prevent further delays, as unpaid workers directly undermine service delivery to residents” said party Cllr Suzette Steyn in a statement.
Mafube municipal staff remain uncertain about when their October and November salaries will be paid, or whether December salaries will be on time. This follows repeated salary failures in February, June and September 2025.
