''A special Council Meeting ending in a special way'''

Earlier today at the Dipaleseng Local Municipality buildings, the Municipal workers stormed into the Council chambers after being briefly denied entrance by the security guard inside the Chamber, where a Special Council Meeting was scheduled to take place from 10:00AM in the morning.

These municipal workers and members of the South African Municipal Workers Union (SAMWU) were demanding that their employer, which is the local municipality of Dipaleseng gives them an opportunity to table their frustrations and demands, since they have previously fell on deaf ears on previous occasions after a series of engagements and demonstrations by the workers.

One of the demands that the workers refused to negotiate on was that the Municipal Manager leaves the chamber with immediate effect as they deem him the main source of the problems that the workers and community of Dipaleseng are facing today because of corruption and improper governance. The Municipal Workers also raised their dissatisfaction towards their employer with regards to the deductions made from their salaries without their consent, stating that it is money for 'RENT'.

The Council requested that there be a brief caucus where they would be discussing some of the requests made by the workers away from the public, and that caucus came to a conclusion that the meeting be suspended and the speaker of council Cllr Msawawa Shozi requested that the members of the community excuse the meeting and only remain with SAMWU members in the chamber to discuss their internal affairs. What was suppose to be be a council meeting to discuss the issues affecting the community of Dipaleseng following the peaceful march initiated by SANCO, in collaboration with key stakeholders such as the Dipaleseng Business Chamber, Vuka Lova , PAC of Azania, SACP, CCIFSA Dipaleseng, Drug Free World, together with all Unemployment Forums representing the unemployed community of Dipaleseng, ended with a lot of questions as to what will be the future of Dipaleseng? And onebquestion remains... "What will happen to the Municipal Manager of DLM Lwazi Cindi?"

The letter of Demand from Eskom holdings SOC limited and the Netherlands enterprise agency("RVO") shock Dipaleseng business people.

Business individuals in Dipaleseng are experiencing frustration, the newly-elected and deployed Local Economic Development Forum has a poor understanding of local business and is following companies and projects that were supposed to enhance the Dipaleseng economy.

Their fear is that the recent LEDF is attacking large projects and providing business opportunities to their friends and families, they have been operating without involving local business people.

The recent LEDF is putting Dipaleseng business people's image at risk, which is causing pain for Dipaleseng business people. Local Economic Development Forum description of Dipaleseng business people as being counter developmental is causing pain to them and tarnishing their image. The said Forum is accused of withholding information, while also conducting meetings with companies without engaging and consulting with them or the broader community.

They requested that the recent LEDF who was self-elected, be removed from their positions as they are misusing portfolios and bringing no development, while distracting projects and companies for selfish gains.

A letter of Demand was received by Dipaleseng local economic forum to cease and desist interruption on grootvlei power station as shown in the screen shot above.
People are asking questions such as how the Mayor and chairperson of the Local Economic Forum Mrs Busi Khanye could allow such backward actions to be taken by the structure that is supposed to lift Dipaleseng's economy?

The letter states the following people as LEDF members of Dipaleseng local economic development forum: Mr Mosebenzi Khanyile, Bathabile Sithole, Prince Moeketsi, Zakhele Tshabalala, Oupa Sithebe, Siyabonga Ncetani, Thokozani Majola, Themba Mashinini and Lebogang Motloe " unlawfully threatened workers, removed property and abstracted work on-site.
