The Freedom Front Plus (VF Plus) requested the Free State MEC for Cooperative Governance and Traditional Affairs (COGTA), Mr Saki Mokoena, to urgently intervene in the Masilonyana Local Municipality’s serious cash flow problems.

This Municipality, which serves Brandfort, Theunissen and Winburg, among other areas, admitted during a portfolio committee meeting in Parliament that it receives R157 million annually in state subsidies, while spending approximately R168 million per year on salaries, benefits and bonuses.

So, nearly all the funds intended for basic service delivery is spent on salaries.

This explains why service providers are not being paid, residents receive poor service delivery and the Municipality is reportedly unable to afford fuel for service vehicles.

The ANC has turned Masilonyana into a salary and cadre deployment machine, leaving service delivery to collapse.

Residents should never again allow tax money to be used for political self-enrichment instead of service delivery.

This is our time to turn Masilonyana around.

Vote for the Freedom Front Plus on 4 November to see actual improvement.

Freedom Front Plus Support Base: The party primarily draws support from Afrikaners and other minority groups.

  1. Van der Merwe is approached by SANRAL one day who want to build a new highway through his donkey farm. Van is really concerned with how his donkeys can get from one side of the farm to the other without having to cross the highway and risk being injured or killed. He is promised that they will build bridges the highway so that his donkeys can cross under the highway. Van agrees and gives them the go-ahead.

    The highway is built and a year later the same rep goes to the farm to go see how Van and his donkeys are. He eventually finds Van under one of these bridges chipping away at the roof of the tunnel with a hammer and chisel.

    \”Mnr Van de Merwe, what are you doing damaging the highway bridge?\”
