The executive mayor of the metro, Clr Mzwandile Masina, and his mayoral committee will travel across Ekurhuleni as part of the Imbizo programme on October 18 and 19.<\/p>\n
Masina recently called on the staff of the metro to spend less time in the office and more time on the ground, attending to service delivery issues.<\/p>
\u201cThere can never be enough consultation with the community in local government, because this is the coal face of governance.<\/p>\n
\u201cTherefore, our decision to continuously engage with our people remains the primary focus of this administration,\u201d he said.<\/p>
As part of the two-day Imbizo, the metro has also introduced Siyaqhuba Friday, in which the mayor and his mayoral committee, together with a team of technicians, will visit communities to inspect the living conditions and discrepancies in the supply of service delivery.<\/p>\n
\u201cSiyaqhuba Friday focuses on service delivery.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt is an attempt to accelerate service delivery, while Imbizo affords us an opportunity to give feedback to the community about the road traversed thus far, while getting much-needed input from communities about their expectations and experiences in the work we do,\u201d Masina explained.<\/p>\n
