EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Ngaka Modiri Molema District Municipality is a predominantly rural region where agriculture and mining form the economic backbone of the district. Educational and skills levels are generally low. It is therefore not surprising that a big proportion of those who are economically active work in relatively poorly paid elementary occupations, especially in the rural areas. The unemployment rate stands at 42.3%. There are five local municipalities within the district. Basic service provision is unequally distributed between the urban and rural parts of the district.

The district has the lowest access to infrastructure in North West, with levels of 19% in 1996 which improved to 23% in 2009. In the period 1996-2009, household access to infrastructure in the municipality was well below the national average. In terms of water infrastructure, there has been a slight decrease in the number of households having access to piped water above RDP level in the municipality over the years (62% in 1996 to 61% in 2009). The increase in electricity connections is the biggest infrastructure achievement in the municipality.

The audit opinions for the District Municipality and most of the local municipalities remain poor with Ratlou local municipality the only one to obtain audit results that were regarded as financially unqualified but with findings.

The State of Local Government Assessment found that the council undermines laws and policies that govern local government. There is poor prioritization of services and functions by the council. In terms of service delivery, the technical unit is not capacitated to perform function of infrastructure delivery. The district does not provide sufficient support to its local municipalities on water, sanitation and roads.

In terms of its Municipal Turn-Around Strategy the District identified challenges of poor infrastructure and backlogs, the need to improve maintenance and finishing incomplete projects.In Ngaka Modiri Molema district.

Only one of the five local municipalities in the Ngaka Modiri Molema District fall into the most vulnerable category, but all four the other local municipalities fall into the second most vulnerable classification in terms of functionality, socio-economic profile and backlog status.

This profile confirms that infrastructure prioritisation in the Ngaka Modiri Molema District should focus on improved infrastructure delivery, with water and sanitation in the rural areas as critical priorities. More attention is needed to ensure that the district is executing its functions on water and sanitation and that the required technical capacity is in place in this regard

1. INTRODUCTION

1.1 Overview1

The Ngaka Modiri Molema District area, particularly in and around Mafikeng, has many associations with South African history. The region was the British western front in the South African War and during this time Mafikeng was besieged by the Boers. Lichtenburg was the scene of the biggest diamond rush in the history of South Africa. Ngaka Modiri Molema District Municipality is situated in the centre of North West Province and shares a border with Botswana. Its area of jurisdiction covers the local municipalities of Mafikeng, Ditsobotla, Ramotshere Moiloa, Ratlou and Tswaing. The principal towns in the district are Mafikeng / Mmbatho, Zeerust and Lichtenburg. Mabatho is the location of the municipal head office.

This is a predominantly rural region. Farming activities focus on cattle ranching, game farming around Zeerust and maize, wheat, fruit and vegetable cultivation. Several kinds of mineral, including gold, diamonds, lime and salt, are also mined. Agriculture and mining form the economic backbone of the district.

Community, social and personal services is the sector employing most people (principally in Mafikeng / Mmabatho and Ratlou), followed by agriculture and the wholesale and retail trade. The more skilled farm workers tend to be found in Ditsobotla and Tswaing, where commercial farms are located. Manufacturing is concentrated in Ditsobotla, around Lichtenburg, where non-metallic mineral products are manufactured in association with large national cement companies in the area.

The population is approximately 806 914, 94.2% of whom are black. The average age of the population in vast areas of the district municipality is less than 25 years. Educational and skills levels are generally low. Secondary schools tend to be concentrated in the larger towns and settlements. Functional literacy (the proportion of residents over 20 years of age who have a primary education or higher) is only 35%. Less than 2% of the total population in Ngaka Modiri Molema District Municipality has received any form of tertiary education. It is therefore not surprising that a big proportion of those who are economically active work in relatively poorly paid elementary occupations, especially in the rural areas. The unemployment rate stands at 42.3%.

Nearly 75% of all households earn less than R1 500 per month. Income-generating projects undertaken during the last decade to alleviate poverty in the district’s communities include sewing, pottery and bead making, carpentry, catering, knitting, vegetable growing and brick making.

Basic service provision is unequally distributed between the urban and rural parts of the district. Only 17.9% of the households in the district have access to water inside their 1 Source: Gaffney’s, November 2009: Local Government in South Africa 2009 – 2011, Official Yearbook: p 1182-3.

houses. A major concern is those people receiving water from natural sources such as rivers, dams, springs, etc. These people are susceptible to diseases.Only 25.3% of the households in Ngaka Modiri Molema District Municipality have access to flush toilet systems. Pit latrines are used by 45% of the households, and about 9% have no access to sanitation. This is also a health hazard and can lead to the outbreak of diseases such as cholera.

Another area of concern is refuse removal. With 64% of residents making use of their own refuse dump, there is a likelihood that groundwater sources will be polluted and pose a health threat to communities. Only about a quarter of homes have their refuse removed by a local authority at least once a week.

Electricity for lighting is provided to 71% of households, while 26% rely on candles. However, far fewer homes have electricity for cooking and heating. About half of all households still depend on wood and paraffin for these tasks.

Health services are relatively well provided but are unequally distributed. Large parts of the rural areas, especially in Ratlou, Tswaing and Ditsobotla, are poorly served with health facilities.

Most residents (32.5%) make their way to work and school on foot; the lack of passenger transport services is evident as only 4,3% of people use minibus taxis and 2,4% use buses. Mafikeng Airport is an important hub in the regional air network, especially as far as tourism is concerned. This facility has amongst the highest ratings and design standards in Southern Africa.

Ngaka Modiri Molema has the lowest access to infrastructure amongst the districts in the province. The graph above indicates that in the period 1996-2009, household access to infrastructure in the municipality was well below the national average. Access to infrastructure in the municipality increased from 19% in 1996 to a higher level of 23% in 2009. The main contributor to the increase in access is electricity infrastructure.

2.2 Sanitation

With regard to access to sanitation, the district municipality’s household access to hygienic toilets has gone up from 27% in 1996 to 42% in 2009. The improvement in access to sanitation in general in the municipality is mainly due to the increase in the use of flush toilets and pit with ventilation. About 50% of the households used pit toilets by 2009.

2.3 Water

In terms of water infrastructure, there has been a slight decrease in the number of households having access to piped water above RDP level in the municipality over the years (62% in 1996 to 61% in 2009). While this is the case, households’ access to water below RDP level was at around 20% by 2009.

2.4 Electricity

In 1996, household access to electricity connections was at 37%. Since then, access has increased drastically and in 2009 it was at 75%. The increase in electricity connections is the biggest infrastructure achievement in the municipality.

2.5 Refuse removal

There has been a slight increase in access to formal refuse removal service from 1996 to 2009 in the Municipality. Access has gone up from 19% in 1996 to 23% in 2009. Personal refuse removal which was at around 65% in 1996 remained the same over the years. The district is rural and the low levels of formal refuse removal must be taken in the context of low settlement densities, where on-site disposal or backyard burning of waste is sometimes appropriate.

2.6 Service provider

Ngaka Modiri Molema does not have authority and does not perform the electricity reticulation function and the refuse removal, refuse dumps and solid waste disposal function. The municipality has, however, authority and performs potable water function and sanitation function and has some capacity for these functions.

4. STATE OF LOCAL GOVERNMENT ASSESSMENTS

4.1 Overview of assessment in municipality

4.1.1 Governance

State of local government assessment revealed that the council undermines laws and policies that govern local government. There is poor prioritization of services and functions by the council. Authority of the Speaker is undermined as meetings are often convened without her concern. The Executive Mayor is in total control of council matters and other councilors’ views are often suppressed. Dismissal of the Municipal Manager has led to serious tensions and divisions within management. There is serious political interference in administration, procurement and appointment of staff. The fact that the administration is highly politicized results in stagnation of service delivery. An Executive Manager of LED was appointed without following recruitment policy and without proper qualifications. Additionally the same person is a service provider for the municipality. The recruitment policies of the municipality are totally ignored thus not implemented at all.

4.1.2 Financial Management and Viability

There are allegations of fraudulent procurement practices in the municipality. International mandates and protocols such as the Brazil contract were contravened.

4.1.3 Service Delivery

The technical unit is not capacitated to perform function of infrastructure delivery. The district does not provide support to its local municipalities on water, sanitation and roads. The district keeps huge investments (over R 100 million) unutilized whilst there are massive service delivery backlogs.

7. VULNERABILITY CLASSIFICATION

The DCoG Municipal Spatial Classification System was designed to develop municipal profiles according to spatial location, based upon results from indicator sets on functionality, socio-economic profile and backlog status. Its purpose is to inform a differentiated approach to municipalities.

The four municipal classifications developed by DCoG are:Class 1: Most vulnerable (57 local municipalities)Class 2: Second most vulnerable (58 local municipalities)Class 3: Second highest performing (58 local municipalities)Class 4: Highest performing (58 local municipalities)

The five local municipalities in the Ngaka Modiri Molema District can be classified as follow:

Table 6: Vulnerability Classification
