DEMAND TO THE END OF UNSCRUPULOUS MUNICIPAL SERVICE DELIVERY TO THE GREATER CITIZENS OF THE GOVAN MBEKI LOCAL MUNICIPALITY.

The South African Constitution's Chapter 7 Local Government, Section 152 and 153 clearly states that local municipalities have a constitutional obligation to make certain that communities shall or must be provided with sustainable municipal services to satisfy their daily needs.

The daily needs are inclusive of :

  1. Supply of adequate basic services such as clean drinkable water, proper sanitation, constant supply of electricity, housing, proper roads and road maintenances, storm water drainage, solid waste disposal.
  2. Promotion of social and economic development
  3. Promotion of a safe and healthy environment
  4. Encouragement and involvement of the communities and community organizations in matters of local governance.

Concerning the Govan Mbeki Local Municipality, it's very clear that the municipality has no adherence or obligation towards upholding Chapter 7 of our countries constitution.

The Greater Communities receives unscrupulous, corrupt and unconstitutional municipal services where constant suffering, abuse and victimization tend to become a daily norm.

Enough is enough, now is time for the community(s) to unite; challenge and take ownership of our Municipality from the hands of the TERRORISTS by means of placing the entire Govan Mbeki Municipality under administration.

Indeed it is possible, indeed we do have the powers as communities to force change. Let us all stand in solidarity and rise to the occasion in exercising our constitutionally protected right of choice to gain access and receive sustainable municipal services to satisfy our daily needs with this petition.

Government must come down and audit all their books as well as inspect all the projects done to check where the monies go so that for any corruption discovered during the audit together with inspection legal action must be taken by removing all those involved in that fraud.

Placing the GMM under administration is the only way to mitigate the current state of living! Not having power or water for days on end when the higher powers live in the suburbs not being affected one bit is not developing or leading ur fellow brothers n sisters and children!!! Put an end to it!

If it were only electricity I would understand now you have crisis in all departments. The local economic development has suffered enough. Looking at the potential surrounding us we should be in a better space than this suffering. There's people who cannot do without electricity.
