“My recent successes in the ward are the improved waste collection services due to all the petitions, which was submitted to parliament and the continuous pressure by ward councillors.
“Also as a result of petitions, we have improvement, since the major outages in December and January, in the supply of electricity. The departments are currently doing large infrastructure improvements.
“My goal is to continue serving the community who elected me and to be accessible to assist residents with service delivery issues of importance.
“With the situation due to Covid-19, we are facing difficult times ahead, with unemployment which could also create opportunities for the entrepreneurs in our society.
“It’s not always possible to please all residents at all times, but I strive to ensure my visibility in the ward and to assist wherever I can.”
