GOOD Statement by Sam Shabane
GOOD National Chairperson
4 January 2023
The GOOD leadership is proud to welcome Peter de Villiers back as a GOOD councillor in the Drakenstein Municipality.
Last week, GOOD nominated Coach De Villiers to fill a vacancy that arose in the Drakenstein Council, after former GOOD Councillor Edgar Arendse’s membership of GOOD was terminated following an internal disciplinary process.
Coach, as he is affectionately known, led GOOD’s campaign in the Drakenstein Municipality as our Mayoral Candidate in the 2021 Local Government Elections where GOOD obtained 4 seats in that Council.
He resigned from Council due to personal reasons in July 2022, but was nominated by the party to return to the Drakenstein Council. De Villiers looks forward to serving the people of Drakenstein, as promised in his Mayoral campaign in 2021.
“I am ready to continue where I left off and will hit the ground running. I look forward to implement the GOOD plan and to grow our movement. I look forward to all the challenges that come with this opportunity and will do my best to serve my community and the people of South Africa, as I have always done”, said de Villiers.
The return of Coach is a welcome boost for GOOD and our team in Drakenstein as we work together towards the 2024 elections. We remain steadfast in our goal to provide leadership that can build a better and more equal society for all South Africans.
