��� I’m concerned there’s been some irresponsible reporting on this:
The fact is that the City of Cape Town’s City Manager, Lungelo Mbandazayo, asked the SAPS to investigate this matter, following the City’s own internal investigation.
So we support the SAPS action, and in fact our own investigations spurred them to act.
Our residents can know that we will always root out any wrongdoing and have a zero tolerance for corruption. ✅

💙 As always, we are rolling up our sleeves to improve our communities, one at a time. From uplifting young minds to challenging NHI in court, we are just getting started!
Here’s a look at the work of the Western Cape Government this past week ⬇️

💙🏟️ Another #DAdifference = a big win for Manenberg youth! DA-led Cape Town delivered an upgraded public sports field, creating safe, active spaces for young people.
Where the DA governs, we deliver. This is the #DAatWork. 🫵
🚨📢 The NCC’s motion of no confidence failed, yawn 🥱 But it really EXPOSED them!
They extort coloured-owned businesses in Mitchells Plain, threaten City of Cape Town staff and run around with guns. ❌
Their gang-like tactics speak louder than their lies. 🤥
🚨 Major victory for South Africans! The disastrous VAT hike has officially been scrapped.
This would not have happened without your pressure and the DA’s relentless fight - in Parliament, in Cabinet, and in court. This is a win for every citizen who cannot afford higher prices.
‼️ Fact: VAT will increase on 1 May, don't let the ANC and ActionSA lie to you. They have now voted to adopt the current ANC VAT budget and fiscal framework in Parliament.
This will increase prices and push more people into poverty. Watch this important update for more info.🔽
The Mayor of Cape Town, @geordinhl , has announced a record-breaking infrastructure investment of R39.7 billion over the next three years as part of the Hope Budget for 2025/26, which aims to build a better future for all Capetonians.

Today the ANC again proposed a budget with a VAT hike that will hurt the poor and kill jobs. Again, the DA said NO!
The DA will not be a rubber stamp to policies that leave people in poverty. We want more jobs, less tax.

ALERT: Power wheeling in Cape Town is now officially live and open for bilateral trade across our grid. ✅
A big step toward energy security & diversifying beyond Eskom ⚡️
Over 562 000 kWhs of power already generated & wheeled across Cape Town's grid in our pilot! ☀️🔋

🚨 A DA exposé has uncovered how the uncaring Gauteng provincial government failed to spend R1.7 billion meant to support Non-Profit Organisations, neglecting and abandoning the vulnerable residents.
The DA is now taking steps to hold those responsible for this accountable!
🚨 The DA has exposed a shady R1.8 billion payout to an ANC-linked entity by Gauteng's Education Department. While schools struggle with bills, billions vanish into questionable deals.
We demand a forensic investigation, and we will fight to stop this misuse of public funds!
🎉 The DA is set to be the only political party in Parliament increasing its support in this election.
We continue to soar with victory as we secure the Western Cape for another 5 years!
🚨 BREAKING: The DA has retained its majority in the Western Cape. Voters have rewarded the party’s strong track record of delivery.
To every person who voted DA, we thank you for trusting us to keep the Western Cape working.
🇿🇦💙 Thank you to all the South Africans who united behind the DA to #RescueSA in this election. Your support means a lot to all of us at the DA.
We would also like to thank all those who are still out waiting to cast their votes at various voting stations across the country.
🗳️ | A big thanks to the thousands of voters who are braving the long queues to cast their votes today to keep the Western Cape DA!
💪 We can win this, but only if every voter stays in the queues, and vote to keep the Western Cape DA!
#KeepTheWesternCapeDA
🧢 | We are still in Beaufort West and it is still BLUE!
