The Executive Mayor of the City of Johannesburg, Kabelo Gwamanda, is receiving medical attention after taking ill during the debate on the State of the City Address.
The mayor has been unwell since June 6, however, given the significance and importance of the day to the council and residents of the city, he went against medical advice and delivered the SOCA.
Mlimandlela Ndamase from the mayor’s office said he was seen by his medical team immediately after the SOCA address.
“During the June 7 debate, his condition deteriorated and the advice of the medical team has been that he be excused immediately and presents himself to a medical facility for urgent treatment and observation,” he said.
