Tshwane —The New mayor of Tshwane, Naisphi Moya, announced the list of 10 Members of the mayoral committee (MMCs) who will be tasked with turning the capital’s fortunes around.

In a statement, Moya announced her new cabinet on Sunday and explained that the new administration will also be accessible and responsive.

“Residents of Tshwane, today marks the end of that uncertainty as I announce the political executive that will be taking this city forward,” she said.

She added that the committee will be held accountable for its collective duty to serve the city and each member will perform their duties with diligence and integrity.

The following members are part of the Mayoral Committee in Tshwane:

• Community and social development services — Palesa Modise (ANC)

• Economic development and spatial planning — Sarah Mabotsa (GOOD)

• Environment and agriculture management — Obakeng Ramabodu (EFF)

• Finance — Eugene Modise (ANC)

• Health — Tshegofatso Mashabela (EFF)

• Corporate and shared services: — Kholofelo Morodi (ActionSA)

• Housing and human settlements — Aaron Maluleka (ANC)

• Roads and transport — Tlangi Mogale (ANC)

• Utility services — Frans Boshielo (ANC)

• Community safety — Alderman Coetzee (ActionSA)

Moya thanked the leadership of the political parties for putting their best people forward and she promised to fulfil the commitment to serve all the residents of Tshwane equally.

“Fellow residents of Tshwane, this is a diverse and politically sensitive Mayoral Committee, and I am confident that it is well-equipped to lead our city forward.”
“In the coming days, we will hold our first official meeting, where we will develop a collective plan of action to fix our city, driven by the belief that our residents deserve better,” she concluded.
