The chief has failed to act against her because she herself escaped proper scrutiny,\u201d Matjila said. <\/p>\n<p>Tshwane\u2019s DA mayoral candidate Cilliers Brink said the ANC was big talk with no action. <\/p>\n<p><strong>ALSO READ:<\/strong> <strong>Gauteng water crisis continues as residents go 27 days without water despite presidential promises<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey were going to announce major corruption in the city which they themselves govern. They are going after the CFO and the chief of metro police, which relates to a previous issue that council already dealt with,\u201d he said. Brink said if the ANC knew about corruption, they didn\u2019t reveal it. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe only thing they revealed was they wanted to get rid of the CFO and the chief of police. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat tells me these officials are not playing the ANC\u2019s game and don\u2019t want to do what the party wants them to do,\u201d he said. <\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-more-at-issue-councillor\">More at issue \u2013 councillor <\/h3>\n<p>Brink said the ANC wanted key positions filled with cadres who would obey instructions. Republican Conference of Tshwane councillor Lex Middelberg said there is more at issue. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cMnisi is the best candidate the DA could scrape from the bottom of their barrel. He was interviewed and recommended by the previous mayor, his MMC for finance, Jacqui Uys and Peter Sutten, his predecessor. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen I submitted a complaint against the CFO at the October council meeting, he was supported by the ANC and the EFF refused to accept the complaint,\u201d Middelberg said.<\/p>\n<p><strong>NOW READ:<\/strong> <strong>Sefako Makgatho students disrupt classes over unpaid allowances<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div>\n<h3>Support Local Journalism<\/h3>\n<p>Add The Citizen as a Preferred Source on Google and follow us on Google News to see more of our trusted reporting in Google News and Top Stories.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><script data-jetpack-boost=\"ignore\" async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-1669381584671856\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<!-- Africa tv video display -->\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-1669381584671856\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"3579572842\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"auto\"\r\n     data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\r\n<script data-jetpack-boost=\"ignore\">\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script><br \/>\n#ANC #pushes #Tshwane #city #heads #suspension<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The ANC calls for Tshwane&#8217;s CFO and police chief to be suspended over alleged misconduct, financial irregularities, and questionable conduct.&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":50306,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[32],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-50305","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-mzansi"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/eduzim.co.zw\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/50305","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/eduzim.co.zw\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/eduzim.co.zw\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eduzim.co.zw\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eduzim.co.zw\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=50305"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/eduzim.co.zw\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/50305\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":50307,"href":"https:\/\/eduzim.co.zw\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/50305\/revisions\/50307"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eduzim.co.zw\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/50306"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/eduzim.co.zw\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=50305"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eduzim.co.zw\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=50305"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eduzim.co.zw\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=50305"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
