ANC Sekhukhune region reiterates support for Premier Mathabatha
GROBLERSDAL – Following the African National Congress (ANC) Sekhukhune’s eightieth Regional conference late last year, the Sekhukhune body of the party recently reiterated their support for Premier Chupu Mathabatha’s reinstatement into the up-coming leadership position of the same party in the province.
The eightieth Sekhukhune Regional Conference was held from the 17 to 18 December at the Groblersdal Rugby Stadium.
At the time, giving a political input during the conference, Limpopo Provincial Chairperson of the ANC, Premier Chupu Mathabatha said people wanted ANC to deliver basic services like water, electricity, roads, jobs, sanitation, employment, particularly for young people, urgently.
Premier Mathabatha then said that: “People want this leadership collective to work with provincial and national government to unlock water from De Hoop Dam and all the bulk water schemes in the region.
People want their ANC to ensure that they leverage all opportunities available in the mines here in the region. Here they want jobs, empowerment through projects and skills development.
I addition, our people want an ANC that is able to coordinate government programs with social responsibility projects of the mines, so that development can take place on a large scale.
Our people want this collective to realize the promise of relocating municipal offices of Sekhukhune district and sector departments from Groblersdal and Lebowakgomo to Jane Furse as promised Mathabatha.”
In the same breath, at the time, the Provincial Chairperson said that the people wanted an ANC region that would sustain relationship with their traditional leaders for a better Sekhukhune.
He said the people also wanted an ANC leadership that will never allow a repeat of the financial misconduct, at which monies meant for service delivery, was invested into VBS mutual bank.
“Our people want an ANC that will lead society and never again allow monies meant for service delivery to be paid into wrong accounts without accountability. Our people are also tired of an ANC that is unable act decisively against those in municipalities, who are permanent culprits when it comes to over expenditures, under expenditures, fruitless and wasteful expenditures. Our people love the ANC that is capable leader of society, and that ahs massive experience with running their affairs,” said Mathabatha that date.
