Malebogo Kruger was voted in for a second term in office unopposed after her two-and-half-year tenure ended last week.  Her deputy mayor, Francis Mokwena was also sworn in for a second term in office.

One of the councillors, Mosimanekgotla Botanka, of Newlook Maipei ward, briefly said there is nothing to show as progress with the current leadership.
