CONTINUING THE WORK — BUILDING BETTER COMMUNITIES

The ANC’s Local Government Manifesto sets out six actions that speak directly to the needs and priorities raised by our communities.

In Ward 59, these are not simply new commitments. They build on the work, engagements and priorities that have already been identified with residents.

1. WATER, ELECTRICITY & BASIC SERVICES
We will continue engaging for reliable water, electricity, roads, sanitation and other basic services that communities can depend on.

2. WORK & LOCAL ECONOMIC OPPORTUNITIES
We will continue supporting opportunities for employment, skills development, EPWP, SMME development and investment that benefits people where they live.

3. SAFER, CLEANER & HEALTHIER COMMUNITIES
We will continue working with residents and relevant stakeholders on safer streets, cleaner neighbourhoods, parks, open spaces, waste management and healthier communities.

4. RESPONSIBLE MUNICIPAL FINANCES
We will continue advocating for municipal resources to be directed towards the priorities of communities, with stronger accountability for how public funds are used.

5. MUNICIPALITIES THAT WORK WELL AND HONESTLY
We will continue raising service-delivery challenges and pushing for a responsive, functional and accountable municipality.

6. LISTENING AND ACCOUNTING TO RESIDENTS
We will continue with community meetings, ward engagements and direct communication with residents — because the priorities of Ward 59 must be shaped by the people who live here.

ONE COMMITMENT

LET’S CONTINUE BUILDING BETTER COMMUNITIES, TOGETHER.

This is about continuity, accountability and building on the work already started — listening to residents, responding to their priorities and continuing to move Ward 59 forward.

📚 A Chapter a Day

In August, I focused on Atomic Habits by James Clear — a powerful reminder that small, consistent changes can lead to remarkable results. The book is really about building good habits, breaking bad ones, and understanding that progress comes from what we do consistently.

For September, I’m starting The Laws of Human Nature by Robert Greene. I’m looking forward to exploring the book and gaining a deeper understanding of human behaviour, relationships and the way people think.

One book at a time. One chapter at a time. Let’s make reading a habit. 📖

Women Must Find Their Voice

Today, we joined Nakhane Community Centre in NU6 in closing Women’s Month while also celebrating the birthdays of the organisation’s members.

The event was honoured by the Ward Committee, Councillors and sister organisations, who came together to support and celebrate the important work being done in our community.

My message was simple: women must have a voice, women must speak, and women must not remain silent while society faces challenges. Their wisdom, experience and leadership remain essential to building stronger communities.

We are blessed to have women in our ward who continue to champion community development and environmental initiatives. They are true ambassadors of our communities and must continue to be supported and encouraged.
