Community ask the Mayor about more job opportunities and traffic

Honourable Mayor, is it possible to create more job opportunities and internships within the municipality for the younger generation who don’t have the funds to pursue higher education?

We are continuously trying to do that. We have increased our internship programme from around 10 to almost 80/100.

Thank u Sir for the start on the Marconi St potholes, long overdue, but pls keep at them to complete the job. The worst ones are yet to come. Ma

Will do.

MR MAYOR. Enough! I was in my car, morning and aftanoon, to find Bus,Taxi,Car and Trucks that jump robots! THIS SH.. MUST END, PLS HELP…. It all in Allen street. WERE ARE TRAFIC OFICIALS? THIS THAT TAXIS STOP AND DROP OR PICK UP IN ALLEN STREET, ALL DAY. Can I take it in my hands to sort them out???

We are investigating cameras at traffic lights. Our traffic dept has been in full force throughout the Easter weekend.

Mr Mayor I’m a resident of ward 27. I just want to know is there a reason to talk to you over social network or Media if yo respond is promising but no outcome?

I try to respond to all issues on Facebook (Newcastle mayor Afzul Rehman) and Twitter (@nnmayor).
