@mooshtaffa: What does your ward councillor actually earn? 💰 Ordinary councillors take home R290,653 to R617,948 a year, roughly R24K to R51K a month before tax. Where they serve decides it: a rural Grade 1 council sits at the bottom, a metro like Joburg or Cape Town at the top. Step into leadership and it climbs fast. A metro executive mayor can earn up to R1.65 million a year. 📈 Ward committee members, though? No salary, just a small stipend. 🤔 Does your councillor’s pay match their work in your community?

There is no reason whatsoever that a ward counsellor should earn over R600k annually. The state is bloated, one musician can have so many counsellors and we're paying all these people for doing nothing??

Active citizens, know that ward councillor's number or group chat & report those potholes and overgrown pushes for escalations, and updates on water outrages, these champs must work for those salaries.
