JOHANNESBURG - The City of Johannesburg's newly appointed deputy mayor, Loyiso Masuku, has promised to strengthen service delivery and improve oversight across municipal departments.
The city’s finance MMC was sworn in on Thursday after being elected unopposed, marking a new political phase for the metro.

Masuku was also recently elected as the ANC’s Greater Johannesburg regional chairperson and could potentially be the party’s mayoral candidate in this year’s local government elections.
However, some coalition partners have expressed concern, arguing that the ANC should not hold both the mayoral and deputy mayoral positions within the metro government.
