Johannesburg mayor Dada Morero is set to restructure his mayoral committee
The Citizen has reliably learnt that Morero has decided on Loyiso Masuku as the MMC for Finance. Former Finance MMC Margaret Arnolds resigned from the position last month after being elected as Speaker of Council.
Masuku previously occupied the position of MMC for Group Corporate & Shared Services.
Her old position will be given to Sithembiso Zungu.
Khazamula Chauke, who also belongs to the ANC, will replace Zungu as Chief Whip of the Council.
Councillor Joseph Mofokeng is set to be appointed as deputy chief whip.
It is still not clear how other portfolios will be affected, with PA leader Gayton McKenzie previously recommending the role of MMC of Transport be given to Liam Jacobs.
This is a developing story.
