Imininingwane Yenqubomgomo Nesitatimende Sobuholi

UHill-Lewis uthe indlela entsha ye-DA izovimbela ukuphambukiswa kwemali engenayo yezinsizakusebenza ezindleleni ezingezona ezesevisi ezifana namaholo, amaphrojekthi ezepolitiki, noma izinkontileka ezingajwayelekile. Ugcizelele isidingo sokucaca kanye nokuxhaswa ngezimali okuzinikele ekulungisweni nasekugcinweni kwengqalasizinda.

“Yonke irandi eqoqwe ngamanzi izovikelwa amanzi. Yonke irandi eqoqwe kagesi izovikelwa ugesi. Imali yakho ngeke isaphathwa njengesikhwama sezombusazwe,” kusho uHill-Lewis ngesikhathi kwethulwa i-manifesto.

Wanezela, “Kumelwe isetshenziswe ukulungisa amapayipi, ukunakekela iziteshi ezincane kanye nokushintsha izintambo. Akumelwe neze inyamalale ibe yimali eningi, amaphrojekthi ezepolitiki noma izinkontileka ezonakele.” UHill-Lewis waqhubeka wagcizelela ukuzibophezela kweqembu ekusebenzeleni yonke imiphakathi, kungakhathaliseki ukuthi iluphi uhlanga lwabavoti.

Umongo Wokhetho kanye Nedatha Yokuvota

Isimemezelo senqubomgomo se-DA siza njengoba sihlose ukuphinda kabili inani lomasipala abangaphansi kokuphathwa kwayo. Phakathi nesonto elifanayo, inhlolovo ye-Social Research Foundation ibonise ukuthi i-African National Congress (ANC) ihola kuzwelonke ngo-34%, i-DA ngo-27%, i-MK Party ngo-15%, kanye ne-Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) ngo-7%.

Ukugxila ekuhlanganiseni imali engenayo yezinsizakusebenza kubhekana nezinselele zikazwelonke eziqhubekayo ekuphathweni komasipala, lapho izimali ezihloselwe ingqalasizinda nezinsizakalo zivame ukuqondiswa ekusetshenzisweni kwemali okungajwayelekile. Inqubomgomo ye-DA, uma isetshenziswa, izodinga ukulawulwa kwezezimali okuqinile ukuqinisekisa ukuthi izinkokhelo zezinsizakusebenza zizuzisa izakhamuzi ngqo ngokuthembeka okuthuthukisiwe kanye nokugcinwa kokuhlinzekwa kwamanzi nogesi.

Ukhetho lohulumeni basekhaya, njengoba uhlu lwabavoti seluvaliwe ngomhlaka-7 Agasti 2026, kulindeleke ukuthi luhlole izindlela ezintsha eziphakanyiswe amaqembu futhi lungathonya indlela izinsizakalo zikamasipala ezixhaswa ngayo futhi zilethwa ngayo kulo lonke elaseNingizimu Afrika. Isiphakamiso se-DA sinezela engxoxweni kazwelonke mayelana nokuzibophezela kanye nokusebenza kahle ekuhlinzekweni kwezinsizakalo zomphakathi, nemiphumela engase ibhekwe eduze yizakhamuzi kanye nababambiqhaza bezepolitiki ngokufanayo.
