The new Mayor of Tshwane, Dr. Nasiphi Moya, is faced with debt of over R11 billion, while creditors owe the City over R28 billion. In this interview with BizNews, Dr Moya details her 100-day action plan to save the Metro; gives viewers the low-down on behind-the-scenes talks on a payment plan of the almost R7-billion it owes ESKOM alone. She details measures to mitigate the water crisis; and gives an update on her other priorities, including infrastuctructure development, economic revitalisation, equitable basic service delivery, by-law enforcement and inner-city rejuvenation. Dr Moya says the “anxiety that we as politicians caused” in the lead-up to the Motion of No Confidence in her predecessor “is unforgivable”, but she vows not to let issues inside the council chambers translate into lack of service delivery.
