Joburg speaker accused of delaying attempts to evict her, mayor: Johannesburg speaker Colleen Makhubele has been criticised for 'deliberately delaying' attempts to evict her from office, alongside embattled mayor Kabelo Gwamanda.
Gwamanda also faces the threat of a chop over the criminal accusations of fraud, following the revelation that a funeral scheme he ran in Johannesburg was never registered at the Financial Sector Conduct Authority and therefore operated illegally.
ActionSA caucus leader Funzi Ngobeni said the delays were a clear attempt to protect the mayor from accountability. Ngobeni said Gwamanda has a serious case to answer and is not fit to be mayor when there are accusations that he defrauded the very residents he is supposed to serve. Majola said the upcoming council had a relatively shorter agenda than usual, with fewer items, which fuelled the idea that time was not a hindrance or a factor in Makhubele's decision-making.
