Too Late for Ongwediva Unelected Councillors

THE rationale of elections in a representative democracy is to ensure that people are represented by those they want to represent them.

Elections are very expensive processes and are not supposed to be

tampered with by individuals pursuing self-interest.

The same people who are supposed to have a clear understanding

of the political game are the same people sabotaging it and even

bringing divisions and hatred within the party.

 

What do they want if they are not elected? Why did they let

elections go on if they detected alleged irregularities? They must

accept defeat rather than just waste our time reading and listening

to their unfounded stories.

 

I thought they were aware that those positions were not

permanent nor full-time and are not even based on performance

contracts.

 

The people of Ongwediva town have unequivocally spoken that you

four should pack and go.

 

Please accept the rule of the game and give a chance to the

elected councillors.
