Premier David Makhura has defended his administration’s decision to dissolve the deadlocked, powerless and paralysed City of Tshwane council as a rational intervention to address its exceptional failures.
Makhura, his executive council and Human Settlements, Urban Planning, Co-operative Governance and Traditional Affairs MEC Lebogang Maile want the Constitutional Court to reverse the Gauteng High Court, Pretoria, ruling declaring the decision invalid and setting aside the provincial government’s decision.
The provincial government maintains that the dissolution of the council was a rational intervention to steady the ship and allow Tshwane residents to solve the problem at the ballot box. The municipality was also operating with heads of key portfolios suspended, widespread corruption and maladministration at its Wonderboom national airport and racking up R5billion in irregular expenditure.
