A Proven Voice
for Ward 18.

Peter J Muller has lived and worked in Dihlabeng for decades — active in the local community, watching the streets he grew up on. He's standing as an independent because Ward 18 deserves a councillor who is on this side of the boundary line every day.

What I stand for

Not tied to any party. Only tied to our community.

Six things Ward 18 residents can hold me to, every single term.

💧

Water

Pressure and supply issues tracked and followed up until they're fixed, not filed away.

🛣️

Roads

Grading and pothole crews on a schedule residents can actually see and check.

💡

Electricity

Outages and streetlight faults reported and chased until they're resolved.

🛡️

Safety

Working with SAPS, CPF and neighbourhood watches to make our streets safer.

✅

Accountability

What was promised, what was delivered, what is late — in plain language, in public.

👥

Community

In-person meetings and open channels — no jargon, no hidden decisions.

A WARD COUNCILLOR IS NOT THE LEADER OF A COMMUNITY — BUT A SERVANT OF THE COMMUNITY

That is also why I believe a ward councillor should be among the people, not above them.

’n Wyksraadslid is nie ’n Leier van die Gemeenskap nie — dit is ’n Dienaar van die Gemeenskap

’n Wyksraadslid is nie ’n Leier van die Gemeenskap nie — dit is ’n Dienaar van die Gemeenskap

Dit is ook waarom ek glo ’n wyksraadslid moet tussen die mense wees, nie bo hulle nie.
