π¨ THE EFFβS CONVENIENT CASE OF POLITICAL AMNESIA
Perhaps let me refresh the minds of those suffering from a very convenient case of political amnesia.
The City Manager, not the Mayor, has the authority to appoint senior management. During my tenure, the City Manager was appointed by Council through a process involving the multiparty coalition I led and the EFF was right there in that process. Their Caucus Leader sat on the selection panel.
So spare us the selective history. The EFF was not a spectator when the City Manager was appointed, and it was certainly not a spectator when General Sibiya was subsequently appointed by the City Manager.
You cannot participate in the process, watch the decisions unfold, and then years later manufacture a story that suits your political narrative.
If you want to attack ActionSA, kindly bring the facts. If you want to rewrite history, at least check the records first. I will not allow anyone to manufacture fiction and pass it off as the history of a City that once worked under my leadership.
Joburg worked. And Joburg will work again when I return!!
