President Cyril Ramaphosa didn't mince his words when he spoke to the leaders of the troubled Ditsobotla municipality in North West on the importance of prioritising service delivery for residents instead of enriching themselves.
The national executive and provincial government met on Friday to discuss solutions for the municipality, which was placed under administration on Tuesday after minister of co-operative governance and traditional affairs Velenkosini Hlabisa visited the province.
Hlabisa discovered that the municipality continued to face severe delivery service challenges and financial constraints.
