The office of Clr Mzwandile Masina , the executive mayor of Ekurhuleni, has noted the social media allegations made against MMC Lesiba Mpya and the chief of staff, Reckson Hasani.
The allegations are around the alleged usage of metro-issued credit cards to pay a bill, this past weekend at the ANC celebrations.
The mayor’s office has stated that the allegations are unfortunate as the City of Ekurhuleni has no credit cards for any executive or staff member.
The two public representatives of the metro further clarified that they were not at the alleged venue at that time of the morning.
The two representatives, well within their rights, were at the January 8 festivities and supported the event.
“As the City of Ekurhuleni we uphold the firm belief that every public servant must act and conduct themselves in a responsible manner.
“We remain servants of our people.
“This message was affirmed in the January 8 statement.
“We regret the sensationalism created around false allegations about public representatives of the City of Ekurhuleni.
“As the metro we remain focused on delivering service to our people and ensuring that we strive towards unity and delivering on our mandate and social contract with the people of Ekurhuleni,” said a statement issued by the mayor’s office.
