North West Premier Thandi Modise and Members of the Provincial Executive Council (Exco) are to engage with disgruntled communities in Madibeng Local Municipality in an effort to address their service delivery challenges. The Exco Imbizo is scheduled to commence at 12:00 pm at the Brits Sports Ground tomorrow.

The provincial government has organised busses for residents of Mothotlung, Lethabile, Maboloka, Damonsville,Jericho , Oskraaal  and Oukasie targeted for the engagement .

The meeting follows similar engagement with Majakaneng, Hebron and Kgabalatsane communities that emerged with short term interventions and deployment of an intergovernmental task team to address service delivery challenges in the said areas.

 Madibeng was placed under provincial administration by Exco on Monday this week after it was found to be dysfunctional.

Premier Modise had earlier appealed to communities within the municipality to support the intervention, exercise restraint and not to disrupt the momentum to turn Madibeng around to be clean, effective, responsive and accountable so that it meets the basic service needs of its communities.-TDN
