The Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) in Gauteng has welcomed the removal of former City of Tshwane mayor Cilliers Brink, saying that it was long overdue as his leadership was filed up with poor service delivery.
Brink was removed officially from his position as the executive mayor of Tshwane during a council session at Tshwane House on Thursday, September 26.
This decision follows a motion of no confidence filed by the African National Congress (ANC) to the Tshwane speaker who informed Brink about the motion of no confidence.
The ANC contends that Brink has failed to address critical issues within the city, including persistent service delivery failures and mismanagement of public finances.
The vote to remove Brink resulted in 120 councillors in favour and 87 against, with one councillor abstaining.
