The African National Congress has stated that the DA in the City of Cape Town has again failed on its promises to improve infrastructure for poor residents. 

The ANC says the DA government cut its capital budget with more than R270 million at a council meeting. 

According to the ANC the DA makes big promises but struggles to deliver the promises. 

ANC’s Chief Whip Pierre Uys says a lot of excuses were made, a lot of money re-allocated and rolled over, but money is not getting to the poorest.

“The budget of The City of Cape Town is over a R6 billion, and with a full budget like that of capital expenditure, there is really a long way you can go to alleviate poverty” Uys said.
