ACDP Councillor Appointed as MMC


African Christian Democratic Party sole councillor in the Nokeng tsa Teamane (Cullinan) Local Council, Hennie Prinsloo has been appointed as one of the three Members of the Mayoral Committee last Thursday.


Prinsloo, who is also a councillor in the Metsweding District Council, is the only non-DA councillor who has been appointed as MMC (Member of the Mayoral Committee). The position of MMC is simular to that of a MEC on Provincial level, or that of a Minister on National level. The Nokeng Tsa Teamane council consists of 5 DA councillors, 5 ANC councillors, 1 ACDP councillor and 1 Citizens Forum councillor.


The Gauteng Provincial Government announced a few weeks ago that all municipalities in Gauteng which are based on the Executive Committee system will be changed to the Executive Mayoral system. The Nokeng tsa Teamane Council is one of the councils effected by this change.


DA councillors were elected to both the Executive Mayor and to Speaker positions. The three MMC positions are filled by two DA councillors and Prinsloo, the sole ACDP councillor.
