Former firebrand, anti-apartheid activist and renowned community leader Mkhuseli “Khusta” Jack has lambasted previous and current Nelson Mandela Bay Metropolitan Municipality leaders for mismanagement, saying it is the ultimate insult to the memory of the statesman that a metro named after him has been allowed to deteriorate so much.
Officially launching his residents’ movement – the Abantu Integrity Movement (AIM) – and its 10-point plan in Gqeberha, Eastern Cape, this week, the activist-turned-entrepreneur said the metro urgently needed to be rescued from corrupt and incompetent politicians who have caused mass destruction.
The 10-point plan is a blueprint aimed at improving service delivery to residents by bringing in competent municipal administrators with integrity who are dedicated to serving the residents.
