Nasiphi Moya
Dr Nasiphi Moya is a South African ActionSA politician who has served as Executive Mayor of the City of Tshwane since September 2024, leading a coalition administration with the ANC and EFF. She succeeded DA mayor Cilliers Brink after his removal from office. Her administration has focused on financial stability, infrastructure renewal and service delivery in the metro, including efforts to resolve the long-standing Hammanskraal water crisis, expand and renew the city's emergency services fleet, and launch Reclaim Our City operations targeting hijacked properties, illegal businesses and undocumented immigration. She has overseen procurement of municipal water tankers and directed cuts to related expenditure, while facing opposition scrutiny over water tanker contracts, electricity infrastructure failures and the retention of ANC Deputy Mayor Eugene Modise as MMC for Finance despite findings against him. Moya features prominently in political debate ahead of the November 4, 2026 local government elections, with the DA and ActionSA trading accusations over the causes of Tshwane's water, power and financial challenges. Supporters credit her administration with reversing years of under-investment and governance failures under previous DA-led councils, while critics accuse her of mismanagement and protecting politically connected allies.
