This is not true. The non-payment of salaries to some of our employees is due to a technical glitch by Absa. The bank acknowledged the error and is fixing the issue. Employees who bank with Absa received their salaries. City employees understand this and they are at work today.

Hundreds and thousands of Tshwane employees didn't receive their salaries today, on pay-day (26 September 2022). City is bankrupt. DA coalition has officially collapsed the City,
