CREDIBLE ALTERNATIVE 1ST MOVEMENT ADVOCATE ROD SOLOMONS ON THE HISTORIC DAY FOR TEAM CA1ST
Today, as I was getting ready to cast my ballot at Pinehurst Primary School in Pinelands, I felt as exhilarated as I felt when I voted in 1994, for the ANC led by Nelson Mandela.
I have given this race my all because I fervently and deeply believe that Capetonians deserve better. I tried to run a different campaign and focus on the issues being faced by our people. I did not want the same old approach to service delivery.
People who are ready for change, should take the step needed to vote for a party that they can put their faith in, instead of investing in parties that have not truly served them. If we are voted into office, we are ready to show people that we are here to serve. We will show people that we are truly a credible alternative.
My appeal to voters: Please apply your mind and exercise your hard-fought right to vote.
THANK YOU, ENKOSI, DANKIE to all of you who will have the courage to lend us your vote for the next 5 years. Should we get a seat or two, WE, in fact, I will not disappoint you.
This is a monumental occasion for CA1st as this is our first election. Regardless of the outcome in this local government election, we will continue to forge ahead with our agenda and we will continue to enthuse ordinary people to stand up for their human rights and to demand their dignity and equitable services.
CA1st is ready to usher in a new era of credibility and accountability in the City of Cape Town.
