Mangaung Metro Municipality Executive Mayor Gregory Nthatisi has made several changes to his Mayoral Committee (MMCs) as part of efforts to strengthen governance and improve service delivery across the metro.

The reshuffle, effected by Nthatisi on Friday, sees some councillors redeployed to new portfolios, while others retain their current positions, according to a reliable source within the ruling party’s regional leadership.

Journal News has reliably learned that Nthatisi received the go-ahead from the ANC’s Mangaung Regional Executive Committee before finalising the decision, with a formal announcement expected on Monday during a media briefing.

“The region has approved the reshuffle of the municipality’s mayoral committee, and the official announcement will be made by the mayor on Monday,” said a source close to the matter. “Comrade Nthatisi’s goal is to enhance efficiency and align the metro’s leadership team with the municipality’s strategic priorities — a move fully supported by the regional leadership.”

According to information received, Sebongile Tsoleli, previously MMC for IDP and Performance, has been appointed to Corporate Services, replacing Manthuse Letawana, who moves to Economic Development.

Logan Kruger, formerly heading Finance, has swapped portfolios with Deputy Mayor Lulama Titi-Odili, who previously led Public Safety. Titi-Odili will now serve as MMC for Finance, while Kruger takes over Public Safety.

Meanwhile, Theodorah Mosala, who oversaw Waste and Fleet Management, has been redeployed as MMC for IDP and Performance.

Attempts to obtain comment from ANC Mangaung regional spokesperson Ncamile Nxangisa were unsuccessful at the time of publication.
