With exactly two weeks before elections, Herman Mashaba’s announcement has put the spotlight on how party politics and campaigning affects service delivery in Gauteng.

JOHANNESBURG - Johannesburg mayor Herman Mashaba has dismissed suggestions that the timing of the launch of the multibillion-rand Joburg rejuvenation project is aimed at boosting the Democratic Alliance’s election campaign.

With exactly two weeks before elections, the mayor’s announcement has put the spotlight on how party politics and campaigning affects service delivery in a province split along municipal and provincial governments. Mashaba said that he shared his dream with Gauteng Premier David Makhura but that he shunned his plans.

The mayor said he also tried many times to convince Human Settlements MEC Uhuru Moiloa to turn abandoned properties in the province into low-cost housing.
