Mayoralty

On 28 November 2019, the African National Congress announced that it had nominated Makhubo for the position of mayor following the resignation of the Democratic Alliance’s Herman Mashaba.

Geoff Makhubo was officially elected to the post on 4 December 2019 after he received 137 out of 268 votes. The DA’s Funzela Ngobeni received 101 votes, while the EFF’s Musa Novela received 30 votes.

Makhubo enters office under much controversy as he has been accused of gross corruption by both the Economic Freedom Fighters and the Democratic Alliance following payment of R30 million to his company from Regiments Capital, a firm implicated in the ongoing State Capture inquiries, while he served as Finance MMC.
