Another bad move taken by the leadership of the embattled municipality with a very low collection rate of revenue
The
municipality has since officially deviated from its core business of
rendering or delivering services instead into a leading employer
The Previous leadership also hired more than 50 General Workers
Despite
a very little tight budget municipality receives from National Treasury
unfortunately the incompetent leadership continues to commit reckless
mistakes by over commiting and overloading itself with unnecessary
obligations which will need to be serviced on an ongoing monthly basis.
This includes unnecessary increased number of employees which continues
to dry out a large portion of their budget
The
municipality is closely approaching a point whereby majority of its
budget will be used to pay salaries instead of rendering the much needed
services in one of the most impoverished rural parts of Limpopo
province
As
a result of all incompetent Mayors since its formation up to date not
even a single one of them ever implemented strategies which could have
assisted the municipality in increasing its revenue collection by
attracting much needed investment including development into this old
town of Modjadjiskloof also formerly known as Duiwelskloof
The
municipality has a lot of potential in key sectors such as Agriculture,
Timber, forestry and others unfortunately as a result of been led by
leaders with no vision no one has ever tap into those opportunities
through strategic investment programs
The
municipality itself is in a bad shape and it's aging infrastructure has
not received any attention. Technically the town itself is totally not
attractive to any form of investment and looks like abandoned ghost town
Just
to indicate that the town is totally neglected even the its resident
No. 1 Honorable Mayor himself his Worship Councilor Dagma Thamaga
Mamanyoha now lives in another neighborhood municipality of Tzaneen.
Preliminary reports indicates that most employees who are originally
from the boundaries of this municipality have now moved to Tzaneen
Majority
of people are still asking themselves if the leadership of the
embattled municipality are running away from this Municipality who else
can be attracted to stay here.
Technically
the leadership has failed to turn the municipality into a first class
town attractive to much needed investment in order to address the much
needed sustainable economy of Greater Letaba Municipality under the
leadership of Modjadji Royal Council boundaries
Despite
the area having exclusive rights of breeding the precious Modjadji
Cycards Trees which could be turned into one the biggest strategic job
creation opportunity unfortunately municipality has not utilized any of
such opportunities
The situation at Greater Letaba local Municipality is a clear indication how most ANC ran municipalities collapsed
