Joburg Crisis Alliance News

Joburg Crisis Alliance to march against City Mayor Kabelo Gwamanda's administration.

The alliance, consisting of several civic organisations, claims the city’s state is deteriorating due to poor service delivery. The Democratic Alliance and Action SA have also called for

Executive Director at Ahmed Kathrada Foundation, Neeshan Bolton, insists the march is not about race or politics, contrary to Gwamanda’s claims. Bolton stated, “One of the first organisations to call for his removal was COSATU. The length and breadth of the organisations range across race, geography, within the city. I think it is precisely that response that indicates the level of maturity that he is lacking as was his comments of calling people stooges for saying that these water surcharges were just ridiculous and incomprehensible.

The civic organisation recently called for Gwamanda to resign, supporting some political parties, which are also calling for his withdrawal. The press conference will be held with the Ahmed Kathrada Foundation, the Organisation Undoing Tax Abuse, Action for Accountability, Defend Our Democracy, and the Johannesburg Inner-City Partnership.
