Criminal pal appointed as Head of Safety and Security

22 April 2016 By Port Elizabethan

Dear MyPE

Today convicted criminal and pal of Danny Jordaan, Linda Mti, was appointed by Jordaan’s ANC as the Metro’s Safety and Security Head, showing the prioritisation of ANC cadres and patronage for friends.

Mti has not only been convicted of drink driving and reckless and negligent driving, but has also been found by the SIU to have alleged fraudulent and corrupt relationships with private contractors to government in deals to the value of R1.5 billion, for which he was allegedly built a mansion as a reward.

As Safety and Security Head, Mti will have a pivotal role in managing NMB’s long-outstanding metro police service, whose launch has now been delayed given the hugely inadequate preparations and massive R15 million budget shortfall.

While the people of many communities across Nelson Mandela Bay face murderous crime and gangsterism, the ANC administration under Danny Jordaan persists in dragging its feet and bungling the launch of a metro police service, while employing thugs to head up major directorates.

Today Danny Jordaan chose corruption and jobs-for-pals over delivery to the people of NMB.
