Save Madibeng strongly believes that it is possible for the people of Madibeng to get clean water services. This Civic Movement recommends that the ‘Powers that Be’ within the Madibeng Local Municipality should establish a water entity (board), which will be responsible for managing water services adequately while retaining its role as a Political Authority responsible for service oversight like the City of Joburg playing oversight over Joburg Waters.
“Currently, every resident of Madibeng knows that the Madibeng Local Municipality lacks the technical capacity to manage water services efficiently and effectively and also lack the financial capacity to do that, ” said Save Madibeng’s leader Sydney Monnakgotla
According to Monnakgotla, this proposal will enable the Municipality to end its history of providing poor water and sanitation services to the residents of Madibeng.
“As Save Madibeng, we believe a professional entity will focus on this core set of tasks of ensuring that water services is managed adequately,” Monnakgotla explained
Achieving this vision, Save Madibeng will require a humongous support from the people of Madibeng. Soon after, the people of Madibeng have voted for their community development activists to be part of the Madibeng Council, the team will push for the establishment of the water board to close a chapter of an ongoing lack of water provisions across Madibeng Local Municipality’s areas.
