Broke FS municipality makes senior appointments─── 13:38 Fri, 27 Mar 2020
The cash-strapped Maluti-A-Phofung municipality appointed two people in its top management despite the fact that it is currently under administration.
OFM News' correspondent, Tumelo Khotha, reports that the municipal council held a special meeting on the eve of the national shutdown. This after the meeting had to be postponed last week because the administrator, Blake Lefatola, was not present. Only a certain number of councillors and all media were not allowed to be part of the council sitting because of the Covid-19 measures. DA-members, however, boycotted the meeting. The party's MPL Leona Kleynhans told OFM News since the municipality is under administration, the council has no authority to make any appointments.
