Joburg mayor Dada Morero reshuffles his mayoral committee
City of Johannesburg mayor Dada Morero has appointed Loyiso Masuku as the new member of the mayoral committee (MMC) for Finance.
Masuku, who was the MMC for Group Corporate and Shared Services, replaces Margaret Arnolds, who was recently elected as Speaker of Council.
Morero also appointed Sithembiso Zungu, who served as chief whip as the new MMC for Group Corporate and Shared Services. The appointments were effective from Wednesday, 6 August.
According to reports, Khazamula Chauke, also from the ANC, will be nominated by the party to replace Zungu as chief whip of the council, with Joseph Mofokeng as deputy chief whip at a future council sitting.
The metro municipality said these appointments are crucial as it seeks to strengthen financial governance, uphold fiscal discipline, and enhance revenue collection to serve its residents better.
'The executive mayor believes that the leadership, experience, and commitment to public service demonstrated by these appointees will significantly contribute to the success of the administration's service delivery agenda, facilitating the implementation of the city's turnaround plan as we collectively work towards building the Johannesburg we envision,' the municipality said.
