The People's Covenant

#TumellanoYaBatho
Not a contract. A covenant.

"We, the people of Tshwane, stand at a crossroads. Five mayors in one term. Water crisis in Hammanskraal. kasi Youth without work, Water Tanker and Expensive Electricity."

This manifesto is not merely a list of promises – it is a covenant with every resident. It is a commitment rooted in the moral principles of justice, integrity, and stewardship, enshrined in the constitutional values of our nation.

We believe that Tshwane is not just a city to be run, but a home to be nurtured, a capital to be proud of, and a legacy to be restored. Retlo thusa batho pele.

"Zwakalang Retsea the city. Re busetse matla a Dieplek ko bathong. Batho Batla Pele Before Politicians."

– Larry Matlala, Founder

THEE MANIFFESTO: People's Mandate
THE PEOPLE SHALL GOVERN

How Communities
Choose Their Champions

1

Community Nominates

No parachute candidates. You cannot represent a ward you do not live in. Champions must be nominated by residents – proof of local roots required.

2

Community Endorses

Minimum 50 verified signatures from ward residents. You must demonstrate community trust before PTA endorsement.

3

Community Recalls

30% of registered voters can petition for immediate recall. You serve at the pleasure of the people – not party bosses.
