Amajuba District Municipality as part of local government in the Northern part of the Province of KwaZulu-Natal, we honour and aim to live to our values of integrity, accountability, commitment and effectiveness, while our vision is to make ADM to be a leading and pioneering District characterized by sustainable development and quality service.

The national and provincial government has tabled their plans, now it’s our turn, to take a lead from them context of the transformation agenda in our country. “The year of Nelson Rolihlahla Mandela: towards full realisation of our freedom through radical socioeconomic transformation”

During his inauguration on 10 May 1994, Madiba outlined his vision for South Africa. He said: “We enter into a covenant that we shall build the society in which all South Africans, both black and white, will be able to walk tall, without any fear in their hearts, assured of their inalienable right to human dignity — a rainbow nation at peace with itself and the world.” “Singena kulesisivumelwano esinikeza isiqiniseko sokuthi, sizokwakha izwe lethu - SA lapho abamnyama nabamhlophe bezohamba ngokuziqhenya ezweni labo bengesabi lutho benesiqiniseko sokuthi bangumsinsi wokuzimilela beyizinhlaka ezehlukeneyo zinokuthula kwingaphakathi labo nasemhlabeni wonke jikelele.”

As part of our values and vision, we want to state again that our government is having a continued contract with our people and we commit ourselves that we will not fail them at all, we are committed to rural development, we are still committed to clean governance, but we are still committed to work closely with our communities in order to push back the frontiers of poverty. Our people trust that we can provide them with clean, safe water and sanitation and all the basic needs of our people.

As we move forward our people will be with us, they will never regret the trust they have placed to the current leadership, accountability and public participation will be our middle name. Going forward we hope and believe that no matter how big the financial constraints, we want to make it clear that the little resources we have, we will use it optimally and we value the service we offer and it must always be costs effective.
