The African National Congress (ANC) said it has noted with serious concern the persistent governance, administrative and service delivery challenges confronting Mafube Local Municipality.
In response, the party said it has directed the ANC-led Provincial Government of the Free State to intervene decisively, sustainably and with a clear focus on long-term institutional stability and improved service delivery outcomes.
‘In line with this directive, the ANC-led Provincial Government, under the stewardship of the Premier of the Free State, Cde MaQueen Letsoha-Mathae, has undertaken to implement a comprehensive and permanent intervention in Mafube Local Municipality. This intervention is aimed at restoring good governance, strengthening administrative capacity, ensuring financial discipline, and stabilising service delivery for the benefit of the residents of Mafube” said the party in a statement.
“The Provincial Government will, as an immediate stabilisation measure, ease the financial burden on municipal employees who have not received their salaries for the past three months, with salary payments expected to be effected by next week”.
