Gauteng Provincial government supports Operation Phakama Vaal
SEDIBENG.- The Emfuleni Local Municipality's (ELM's) operation to clean and provide service delivery to the community started in earnest on Monday, June 2.
Operation Phakama Vaal is supported by the Gauteng Provincial government and its main focus is to bring back service delivery and confidence in the community. It (also) aims, among others, to encourage communities to keep the environment clean. The Gauteng Provincial government said that the initiative follows the recent Provincial Intergrated Service Delivery Programme visit that seeks to address service delivery issues including crime, infrastructure maintenance and waste management amongst other things.
'The week long operation will focus on Sebokeng, Vanderbijlpark, Evaton and Vereening mainly tackling illegal dumping, promoting recycling and restoring neglected public space,' a statement by the Provincial government read.
On Monday teams (employees from ELM), supported by others from different municipalities in the province gathered at ELM Masoheng, Sebokeng offices to start the operation. The campaign will run throughout this week, and ends on Sunday.
