Today the Hon Speaker of GKM , Cllr N Mgema presided over an ordinary council meeting at Qumrha Community Hall.<\/p>\n

Right before outlining his presentations, Hon Mayor announced to the meeting that the Municipality has received Awards in the space of a year and he had brought those to the council meeting as these were not just his awards but the awards of council.<\/p>\n

\u201cThese awards that I present to you today are the result of the hard work that has been taking place in the municipality. Councillors, and Administration have ensured that they work together and that is why we have these awards. We acknowledge that the Awards and Clean Audit don\u2019t necessarily translate to servicing all our wards as much as we would like, however that is a budgetary constraint issue, with the very little that we have we always ensure that we use our entire budget and never have to take money back to treasury.\u201c the Awards are:<\/p>\n

SALGA certificate of Recognition for receiving a Clean audit for the 2024\/25 Financial Year
\nSALGA certification fate of Leadership presented to Hon Mayor for recognition of outstanding leadership, commitment and dedication in advancing good governance, accountability and excellence within the municipal sphere for the 2024\/25 financial year
