Johannesburg Mayor Morero Vows Continued Service Delivery Beyond G20 Summit
Mayor Morero attributes Johannesburg's service delivery improvements to management reforms and a fully funded budget, with progress seen across all seven regions, not just for the G20.
- Speaking to media on Sunday at Nasrec, City of Johannesburg Executive Mayor Dada Morero said the seamless execution of the G20 Summit demonstrates the metro's capacity, systems and stability to deliver services consistently.
- City officials say systems set up from November to around June enabled advances, while a fully funded budget passed in June covered all seven regions and mayoral committee alignment unlocked delivery momentum.
- Visible revitalisation — from resurfaced roads to repaired intersections — has been apparent across all seven regions, as the intensified Mayoral High-Impact Service Delivery Programme unblocked service delivery failures.
- Morero set an immediate test — `It’s simple, check us on Tuesday.` — and said systems, budget and political will are aligned, with true measures next week, next month and into the new year.
- The opposition Democratic Alliance accused authorities of a staged clean-up, which Morero rejected, while Gauteng Premier Panyaza Lesufi said weekly ministerial meetings will continue after the summit.
