Inside Tshwane: Nasiphi Moya on finances, immigration, women in politics & her vision for the city
Episode 12
Saturday, 12 September, 2026
In this episode of the Sunday Times Politics Weekly, deputy editor Mike Siluma speaks to Tshwane executive mayor Dr Nasiphi Moya. The mayor describes herself as a reluctant politician who actually dislikes the culture of politics. She explains how she moved from academic and professional roles in the DA and ActionSA into the mayoral office, and why she sees herself as a technocrat focused on governance rather than ideology. They discuss the city’s serious financial challenges, the corruption syndicates she has uncovered, her disappointment over the written warning given to CFO Gareth Mnisi, the impact of illegal immigration on municipal services, the barriers facing women in politics, and what Tshwane could look like after another five years under her leadership. Moya also directly addresses the allegations about renovations at her private home. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
