StatsSA’s Census 2011 of municipal data reveals that where the DA governs, South Africans have a better chance of finding a job.
The analysis of the data confirms that the DA is better at delivering basic services and job opportunities where they govern.
Out of South Africa’s eight Metros the City of Cape Town outperforms all other ANC controlled municipalities with the lowest levels of overall unemployment despite having the second biggest population.
The unemployment rankings for Metros are as follows (from best to worst):
1.City of Cape Town
2.Tshwane
3.City of Johannesburg
4.Mangaung
5.Ekurhuleni
6.Ethekwini
7.Buffalo City
8.Nelson Mandela Bay
With South Africa gearing up for national and provincial elections next year, the stats make for interesting reading and it will be even more interesting to see just how much of the vote the ANV will garner in 2014.
The only way to eliminate poverty and inequality is to create job opportunities for the millions of unemployed South Africans.
The time for change is now. The time for jobs is now.
