The vision of this campaign is to unite the people of Joburg who believe in a City that works, run by a government that cares.

Once elected, we will stop the rot, fix what is broken, and rebuild Joburg into a City its residents can be proud of — a City that delivers reliable services, ethical leadership, safer communities, and real opportunities to work, live, and succeed.

We have identified the following five priorities which we will achieve in five years. The priorities are summarised as follows: Reliable water and electricity for all residents We will stop the stealing and wasting of money. We will ring-fence revenues paid for the most important services and invest in improving those services. We will partner with the private sector to build Joburg’s future. Roads that work We will fill potholes within 72 hours, get 95% of traffic lights working and repaint road markings. We will use modern technology to protect major intersections, and stand up to rogue taxis. Attract 200,000 new jobs to Joburg. With a capable government and quality basic services, we will bring Joburg’s business centres back to life. The local economy will grow, and jobs will return. Joburg can only be saved in partnership with business and the City’s heroic residents. Law and order! Kill corruption and make public spaces safer.

We will be tough on crime, reclaim hijacked buildings and stop land invasions. We will have zero tolerance for illegal immigration. We will listen to whistle-blowers, protect them, and fire corrupt officials.

⁠A professional, modern government. A City we can be proud of.

We will hire competent professionals, reward good performance, and punish poor performance. A fair billing system. Simple, user-friendly systems with the best of modern technology. A government by you, for you, and with you.

The DA’s signature good governance awaits Johannesburg following the local government election. We believe in Joburg, and we will Get Joburg Working.
