Johannesburg Mayor Herman Mashaba has responded, in a statement, to protesters from Alexandra near Sandton, Johannesburg, who said they would be shutting down the township and are demanding services from the DA-led municipality.
Mashaba said the City had already begun its inner-city revitalisation project aimed at creating affordable housing opportunities for those in our poorest communities. Mashaba then lists a number of improvements the multi-party government has implemented in the township. The mayor said policing remained the competency of the provincial and national government.
