DA Rejects organogram for cadre deployment
The DA has taken a stand against the corrupt system that the ANC has built to feed itself.
The DA multi-party voting bloc defeated an ANC strategy to approve a politically skewed staff organogram at the 6 December council meeting.
The employment of an additional 85 political appointees was rejected in the interest of rather filling vacancies that will lead to better service delivery. There is a 40 per cent vacancy rate in Infrastructure and 39% in Public Safety.
The Speaker of Council, Councillor Noluthando Mangole, was forced to rule in favour of the DA, EFF, FF+ and IFP voting bloc, nullifying the ANC’s realigned organogram which favoured political staff appointments.

In a statement released to the News, the DA states that it is aware of reports that appointments had already been made in terms of the organogram that was rejected, even before the matter was tabled before council. The DA will inquire about whether these illicit appointments were indeed made, and find out what steps will be taken to rectify the matter.
The unanimous voting bloc included 39 abstentions, prevailing over the 37 ANC councillors who voted for a politically bloated organisational structure, thereby filling critical vacancies.
The DA has taken a stand against the corrupt system that the ANC has built to feed itself. It’s time for a new beginning for the people of Mogale City, where the needs of the people are put first.
