We will not waiver on our democratic principles and values. As the Executive Mayor, “I thank my caucus for once again entrusting me with the confidence to lead.’’ Together, we will strive for better service delivery and clean governance, the very foundation of the values of the Democratic Alliance” said Ald Campell.

We wish her all the best in her role as Mayor and be the shining example of what is possible when people embrace the DA’s core governing principles.
