believes that eThekwini can be restored to its former glory.
He says the presidential eThekwini working group is making significant progress in bringing together key stakeholders and various levels of government to tackle the city's challenges.
He touched on the issue while responding to questions from members of the National Council of Provinces on Thursday.
Ramaphosa set up the group in February after meeting with the Durban Chamber of Commerce and Industry and various social partners to discuss service delivery challenges in the municipality.
