He accused the DA of embarking on a “public disinformation campaign” in the wake of the judgment.
“There was no justification for removing elected DA councillors from their positions and replacing them with administrators who left the City in chaos and near financial ruin.” Critical about the DA's stance, he said: “They also would not accept the fact that the court, in all three judgments, found that council was severely dysfunctional. What they fail to recognise or conveniently overlook is that the first judgment took an approach that serves to guide the government on how to manage the tensions that exist between the different spheres, especially where one sphere is failing the people.
The court ordered that the MEC must invoke his powers in terms of item 14 of Schedule 1 of the Systems Act by appointing a person or a committee to investigate the cause of the deadlock within the municipal council.
