LETTER | Give Bobani a chance
Trollip pulled out all the stops, even appointing PWC [allegedly] irregularly and unlawfully to investigate Bobani at a cost of millions of rand.
The ratepayers had to fork out unnecessary revenue for Trollip and the DA to pursue and tarnish Bobani’s image.
For months this PWC report was used as a political sword to destroy Bobani’s character.
Trollip handed this private and secret report first to DA leader Mmusi Maimane unlawfully and irregularity.
Second, full council, which was supposed to be the initiator and owner of the PWC report, never approved and saw the report.
At this stage Trollip and the media were in full swing wanting to obliterate Bobani’s character.
All of these investigations at a great financial cost to the ratepayer amounted to nothing.
Bobani was vindicated and the much-talked-about PWC report amounted to zilch.
With Bobani’s character in tatters he was installed the new mayor in August with the white community continuing to vilify him, threatening to withhold revenue if he continued to hold office.
To all of those racists who are filled with hatred, may the Lord have mercy on you and may you realise that Bobani has the potential of becoming the best mayor that this metro has had.
