Cape Town - The establishment of a ministerial task team to investigate claims Cape Town authorities are cutting water supplies in some poor areas of the city is "another unlawful political witch-hunt", Democratic Alliance leader Helen Zille said on Friday.
"Why is a national minister targeting a municipality which is a model of good governance and efficiency in comparison with most ANC-run local authorities? And why now?" she asked in her weekly newsletter on the DA website.
Co-operative Governance Minister Sicelo Shiceka announced the appointment of the team last month.
Zille, who is also Western Cape premier, said neither the city nor the province would co-operate with the task team, the establishment of which she likened to the Erasmus Commission.

Why doesn't the ANC spend this much time trying to get it's municipalities up and running. With the recent spate of violent protests in Soweto and Diepsloot you'd this they would be taking care of their back garden instead of spying on the neightbours... who appear to be doing a fairly good job by staying focussed.
This is typical ANC BS to lead up to the elections next year. Take focus away from their lack of service delivery by conducting an investigation into a fake situation in a non-ANC municipality!
