Despite grand promises by Buffalo City Metro mayor Princess Faku that the long-delayed Mdantsane NU2 pool would be completed during her first 100 days in office, no work has been done on the project since she took over a year ago. In fact, according to the main contractor on the multimillion-rand project, the NLG Group, the last day of work done on the promised state-of-the-art pool precinct was in July 2022, about eight months before she took over as the city’s executive mayor.
