KIMBERLEY<\/strong> – Die inwoners en belastingbetalers van die bele\u00ebrde Sol Plaatje-munisipaliteit in Kimberley word weer eens gedwing om pa te staan vir n\u00f3g regskoste in ‘n stryd wat opposisiepartye en ander ingeligtes beweer is die regerende party se stryd om beheer oor die \u201cmunisipale geldkoffers\u201d te kry voor die plaaslike verkiesing wat op 4 November plaasvind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dit volg op die nuus dat die LUR van samewerkende regering di\u00e9 munisipaliteit op 2 Mei onder administrasie gaan plaas en oorneem, en ‘n beplande dringende interdik-aansoek daarteen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Die Institute of African Royalty<\/a> (IAR) het verlede maand ‘n aansoek by die hooggeregshof in die stad teen die munisipaliteit, speaker, burgemeester, premier, asook LUR en minister van samewerkende regering ingedien om die munisipaliteit onder administrasie te plaas. Dit word deur die munisipaliteit en Thapelo Matlala, munisipale bestuurder, teengestaan. Di\u00e9 interdik-aansoek wat op Donderdag 30 April aangehoor sou word, is tot 15 Mei uitgestel sodat repliserende verklarings ingedien kan word.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Die IAR wil met sy aansoek die munisipaliteit \u201cstabiliseer en verseker dat hy sy grondwetlike en statut\u00eare verpligtinge nakom\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Van die verweerders beweer die IAR het nie die regsbevoegdheid om di\u00e9 aansoek te bring nie, en is sy bewerings oor swak bestuur en dienslewering sonder bewyse en gegrond op spekulasie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Intussen wil Bentley Vass, LUR \u00a0van samewerkende regering, ingevolge Artikel 139(1)(b) van die Grondwet by die munisipaliteit ingryp, waarvolgens ‘n Provinsiale Uitvoerende Verteenwoordiger en ‘n span van vier kundiges op 2 Mei beheer oor die munisipaliteit neem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wil oorname met dringende interdikaansoek stuit<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Volgens ingeligte bronne het die munisipaliteit onder leiding van Matlala reeds met regstappe begin om di\u00e9 oorname met ‘n dringende interdikaansoek te stuit \u201com die munisipaliteit te red\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Matlala, wie se kontrak oor net meer as ‘n jaar verstryk, het drie jaar gelede ‘n suksesvolle aansoek by die Tesourie gedoen om ‘n Begroting vir Infrastruktuur-toelae van R2,8 miljard te bekom om die stad se waterinfrastruktuur op te knap. Heelwat werk is reeds gedoen, maar ingeligtes beweer dit is di\u00e9 geld waarop sekere partye voor die verkiesing hul hande wil l\u00ea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

LEES OOK: <\/strong>Wanorde in Sol Plaatje-munisipaliteit: LUR-ingryping misluk te midde van chaos<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Die uitgerekte sage spruit uit Dipuo Peters, speaker, en Martha Bartlett, burgemeester, se vroe\u00ebre onsuksesvolle regsgedinge om Matlala weens bewerings van korrupsie uit te boender nadat die tugproses verstryk en hulle ‘n tweede onre\u00eblmatige poging aangewend het om hom te skors. Matlala het ‘n verklarende hofbevel verkry om terug te keer werk toe nadat die betrokke twee ampsdraers eers hul app\u00e8laansoek teruggetrek en toe heringestel het. Dit is gevolg deur talle mislukte raadsvergaderings en Vass se dreigemente van administrasie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

‘Raad is onkapabel’ om onwettige besluite te neem<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Adv. Thobile Komazi, provinsiale voorsitter van die IAR, beskryf die voorafgebeure in sy funderende verklaring. Hy tree in openbare belang op en wil keer dat die munisipaliteit, \u201cverlam word\u201d. Hy voer aan die Raad is onkapabel om wettige en bindende besluite te neem, veral oor die \u201cstatus van die stadsbestuurder\u201d en die aanvaarding van die jaarlikse begroting. Die bestuurskrisis hou volgens hom ‘n direkte bedreiging in vir inwoners, lewering van noodsaaklike dienste en regmatige administrasie. Hy wil wetlike bestuur herstel, die raad help om weer effektief te funksioneer, en verhoed dat dienslewering en bestuur verder verswak.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Op sy webwerf verklaar die IAR\u00a0 hy is ‘n nie-regeringsorganisasie wat hom toewy aan die bevordering en bewaring van die rol van Afrika-koninklikes en tradisionele leierskap.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cGewortel in die tradisies en erfenis van ons kontinent, dien die IAR as ‘n baken van eenheid, ontwikkeling en kulturele integriteit. Ons werk oor Afrika heen om inheemse kennisstelsels te handhaaf, landelike uitdagings die hoof te bied, en die voortou te neem met sosio-ekonomiese opheffing. Ons vennote sluit tradisionele leiers, akademiese instellings, ontwikkelingsagentskappe en globale belanghebbendes in, almal verenig in ‘n gedeelde missie om ‘n welvarende en waardige Afrika te bou.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

‘Bewerings van swak dienslewering vaag, spekulatief’<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

In die hofsitting van 30 April het adv. Johan Olivier namens die stadsbestuurder aangevoer die IAR het geen dringendheid \u00f3f prima facie handelsbevoegheid (locus stand<\/a>i) om di\u00e9 aansoek te bring nie. Hulle kan nie steun op die beweerde oortreding van ‘n Artikel in die Handves van Menseregte om te toon watter belang hulle by die munisipale funksionering het nie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Matlala, wat skynbaar sonder verdere teenstand ses weke lank terug op kantoor is, s\u00ea in sy be\u00ebdigde verklaring die aansoeker kan nie toon watter onherroeplike skade hy sal ly as die munisipaliteit nie onder administrasie geplaas word nie. Bewerings soos swak dienslewering word nie met werklike bewyse gestaaf nie, en is vaag en spekulatief.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Die meerderheid raadslede het vanwe\u00eb die LUR se vroe\u00ebre aanmaning ‘n spesiale raadsvergadering met ‘n petisie bel\u00ea om die begroting en ander kwessies ter tafel te l\u00ea omdat die speaker dit geweier het. Die spesiale raadsvergadering is op 17 April gehou, ondanks die speaker se dringende mislukte interdikaansoek om dit te keer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

LEES OOK: <\/strong>ANC eis dringende ingryping by Sol Plaatje-munisipaliteit weens \u2018onwettige\u2019 optrede<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Matlala vind dit uiters vreemd dat die prokureursfirma wat tot nou in opdrag van die speaker en burgemeester in aansoeke om hom as stadsbestuurder uit die kussings te lig, sonder sy amptelike toestemming briewe namens die munisipaliteit aan die IAR skryf. Hierin beaam die firma die sogenaamde \u201conregeerbaarheid en wanfunksionaliteit\u201d\u00a0van die munisipaliteit en verklaar dat Matlala \u201cweens hangende tugprosesse nie wetlik die stadsbestuurder is nie\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Volgens Matlala is die IAR oneerlik as hy verklaar dat die \u201cwanfunksionele bestuur\u201d hom bekommer, en dat hulle eintlik sy amp as stadsbestuurder bevraagteken en van hom ontslae wil raak.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

It has a long-standing history of serving the community with news and information pertinent to the region. The newspaper, distributed in the capital and more than 20 towns, is also read online in other parts of the vast province, and has been an important source of information for residents of the Northern Cape. The publication is geared towards Afrikaans and English-speaking readers, with the content reflecting the cultural diversity of the province. Like the other regional newspapers in South Africa, NoordkaapBulletin has had to adapt to changing media landscapes, including the rise of digital news platforms.
