In the first 100 days in office, Executive Mayor, Clr Mzwandile Masina introduced the #Siyaqhuba campaign as part of a drive towards ensuring that service delivery issues are rapidly responded to and more importantly the people of the City are in closer proximity with public representatives.
The #Siyaqhuba service delivery programme started, on January 9, seeing officials interact directly on the street with the community and more importantly contractors accounting on site for delayed projects.
Masina emphasized the need for urban rejuvenation in major towns of Ekurhuleni.
“The City of Ekurhuleni requires an effective system which synchronizes rapid response and service delivery within the nine towns. More importantly there must be a seamless approach towards response to service delivery issues such as potholes, sidewalks and our health and safety issues,” Masina said.
Masina is on the ground for the next two weeks making an assessment in Germiston.
Through the #Siyaqhuba service delivery drive, the Mayor has called for an urgent audit of hijacked buildings, attendance to sidewalks and potholes and a major clean up and reinforcement of peace cops and the Clean City Brigade.
The #Siyaqhuba drive subsequently move towards all nine towns, including Boksburg. Each street and block of the towns will be visited daily.
