Herman Mashaba's 10 point plan on track
Johannesburg mayor Herman Mashaba says he won't allow the burden of an inadequate ANC budget to halt the wheels of change in the city.
Mashaba marked his first 100 days in office by addressing stakeholders, citizens and the media about the progress made by his administration to date.
The mayor says since taking office, the DA has been inundated with complaints of corruption, nepotism and fraud by the previous administration.
Mashaba says he won't allow an insufficient budget to derail his 10-point plan to address unemployment, the housing backlog, boost economic growth and most importantly improve service delivery.
