Cope applauds Winnie for demanding electoral change─── THANDI XABA 07:54 Sun, 26 Apr 2015
Johannesburg - The Congress of the People (COPE) has applauded Winnie Madikizela-Mandela for requesting an amendment to the electoral system being used at national and provincial level.
Spokesperson Dennis Bloem says the challenge the country faces is that public representatives are not accountable to a constituency but rather to a political party.
He says the suggestion by Madikizela-Mandela would mean ward councillors would be held accountable for providing efficient service delivery.
