'I will not allow the coalition of corruption to simply waltz back in and undo everything we’ve accomplished here.'
Phalatse said she is committed to fighting for the city and unlawful acts must not go unchallenged.
“First, we need to fight because of principle: unlawful acts must not go unchallenged. Second, the power-grabbers are not for the people of Johannesburg. Actually, this is not my fight, this is your fight,” she said. “Our residents deserve stability, and we believe that sporadic deviations from the signed coalition agreement, outside the agreed-upon framework, would set the tone for an unstable political tenure.”“These accusations are nothing but a smokescreen designed to distract from what’s really going on: The return to power of a corrupt ANC syndicate, which now once again has its hands on the country’s biggest municipal budget,” said Phalatse.
“I will not allow the coalition of corruption to simply waltz back in and undo everything we’ve accomplished here.”
