AfriForum het Woensdag 22 April in \u2019n skrywe aan die Mangaung-metro se uitvoerende stadsbestuurder Sello More gerig waarin die burgerregte-organisasie sy onmiddellike bedanking eis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jaco Grobbelaar, AfriForum se hoof van die sentraalstreek, s\u00ea die eis dat More moet bedank, volg op die voortslepende wanbestuur van geld en die verval van infrastruktuur in die metro.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hy s\u00ea die verval van dienslewering in Bloemfontein het \u2019n kritieke punt bereik met nuwe inligting wat bevestig dat meer as R1,6 miljard oor vyf jaar verlore gegaan het weens waterlekkasies, \u2019n direkte gevolg van swak bestuur, gebrekkige instandhouding en totale administratiewe mislukking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Volgens AfriForum verdien die inwoners van Bloemfontein betroubare en funksionele basiese dienste, verantwoordbare en bevoegde leierskap en deursigtige en eerlike finansi\u00eble bestuur.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Grobbelaar s\u00ea die verval van Bloemfontein is nie net \u2019n infrastruktuurprobleem nie, maar \u2019n leierskapskrisis. \u201cTerwyl miljarde rande vermors word, word inwoners sonder betroubare vullisverwyderingsdienste gelaat met \u2019n munisipaliteit wat nie eers diesel vir vullisverwyderingsvragmotors kan bekostig nie, vullisterreine wat nie op standaard is nie en swak bestuur word, paaie wat oortrek is met gevaarlike slaggate en parke wat al vir maande lank verwaarloos is.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AfriForum het in Maart alleen 64 ton vullis verwyder en 64 874,50m\u00b2 se gras in parke en groen gebiede gesny.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Christo Groenewald, AfriForum se distriksko\u00f6rdineerder, s\u00ea hierdie ingrype was nodig omdat die metro versuim om sy verpligtinge na te kom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Die Mangaung-jaarverslag vir 2024\/2025 wys op herhaalde onre\u00eblmatige, vrugtelose en vermorste uitgawes, wat \u2019n kultuur van wanbestuur en geen aanspreeklikheid bevestig.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cNog meer skokkend is dat die munisipale bestuurder, mnr. More, homself in 2024 met \u2019n salarisverhoging van ongeveer R700 000 per jaar beloon het vir sogenaamde \u201cuitmuntende prestasie\u201d. Hierdie besluit is \u2019n klap in die gesig van elke belastingbetaler wat daagliks die gevolge van hierdie mislukking moet dra,\u201d s\u00ea Grobbelaar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAfriForum stel dit duidelik: hierdie situasie is onaanvaarbaar, daarom eis ons formeel die onmiddellike bedanking van mnr. More. Sy voortgesette aanstelling is onhoudbaar en ondermyn enige poging om die munisipaliteit te herstel,\u201d sluit Grobbelaar af.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AfriForum beplan ook om sy buurtspan opleiding te gee om waterlekkasies te herstel, sodat die organisasie kan ingryp waar die metro nie sy verpligtinge nakom nie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nou het AfriForum<\/a> met ‘n versoekskrif begin genaamd Sello More moet bedank! Stop die verval van Mangaung. Elke keer dat iemand die versoekskrif<\/a> onderteken, sal \u2019n versoek om bedanking aan More gestuur word. \u2019n Afskrif van die versoek sal ook aan Gregory Nthatisi, uitvoerende burgemeester van die Mangaung-metro, en MaQueen Letsoha-Mathae, Vrystaat-premier, gestuur word.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
