Kenny Kunene Resignation

GOOD notes the resignation of Kenny Kunene from his positions as Member of the Mayoral Committee (MMC) for Transport and as a Proportional Representation Councillor in the City of Johannesburg. While questions remain regarding his relationship with murder-accused Katiso “TK” Molefe, we acknowledge Kunene’s decision to step aside as a responsible and necessary step in defence of public trust.

GOOD Statement by Matthew Cook, GOOD National Chairperson and City of Johannesburg Councillor: 

GOOD notes the resignation of Kenny Kunene from his positions as Member of the Mayoral Committee (MMC) for Transport and as a Proportional Representation Councillor in the City of Johannesburg. While questions remain regarding his relationship with murder-accused Katiso “TK” Molefe, we acknowledge Kunene’s decision to step aside as a responsible and necessary step in defence of public trust.

Kunene’s resignation, while not an admission of wrongdoing, demonstrates a degree of maturity often absent in local government. His departure allows space for due process, transparency, and a fair resolution in the interest of all parties involved.

Johannesburg has no shortage of urgent issues demanding attention: collapsing infrastructure, growing commuter frustrations, service delivery backlogs, and a need to overhaul the city’s transport networks. These challenges require an MMC that is fully focused, credible, and above reproach.

We trust that this moment will not become another political spectacle, but should instead serve as a reminder of the ethical standards and accountability we must demand from all public representatives, regardless of party affiliation. GOOD remains committed to placing the interests of Johannesburg’s residents above partisan politics. We support all efforts to promote ethical governance, safeguard due process, and reinforce a culture of accountability, transparency, and dignity in local government
