Deputy President Paul Mashatile blames local councillors for water crisis amid corruption probe, deflecting accountability.

The deputy president has contributed to Joburg’s water woes. He helped deliver an inept mayor who says there is no water crisis.

“I know some local councillors won’t like that because they say we’re taking their powers. We’re not going to take their powers, but we will intervene where we realise that the support we are giving, and the grants, there is no progress. For most people, “councillor”, means ward councillor – the person there to help you in dealing with your municipality. Ward councillors have no executive authority.Mashatile was instrumental in replacing Joburg’s short-lived Mpho Phalatse administration with an ANC/EFF/PA coalition which brought Joburg to its knees.
