Cllr. Dada Morero

Executive Mayor

Feel the rhythm of Jozi.

From bustling streets to serene green spaces, Joburg offers a mix of energy and charm you won’t find anywhere else.

Executive Mayor: Councillor Dada Morero

​​Sello Enoch Dada Morero, who is the Executive Mayor in the City of Johannesburg, is also the regional chairperson of the African National Congress (ANC) in Johannesburg.

Born and raised in Orlando West Extension, a few kilometres from Madiba’s and Andrew Mlangeni’s homes, Morero is the father of five and is married to Kgomotso. They live in Roodekrans, Roodepoort.

Morero cut his teeth in political activism in high school by rebelling against the forced occupation of Soweto schools by white former South African Defence Force members in the late eighties. He is a former Congress of the South African Students’ Congress student leader.

An avid news and current affairs consumer, Morero has a postgraduate diploma in Public Management from the Wits Business School and a Master’s degree from the Regenesys Business School. He is currently enrolled for a Master’s in Policy Development at the London University.

Morero’s first job was at the South African Secret Service before moving to the Department of Home Affairs, where he was responsible for functions such as data collection, the preparation of dockets and the investigation of criminal syndicates and corruption.

He joined the City of Johannesburg and worked in the office of the then MMC of Finance, Parks Tau, in 2004 before being appointed Director: Customer Communications and Marketing in the City of Johannesburg in 2008. His responsibilities included the management of customer walk-in centres, media relations and the production of marketing material on behalf of the revenue department.

​Morero left the City after he was elected Regional Secretary of the ANC in the Greater Johannesburg region in 2011. He served three terms, making him the longest-serving regional secretary in Gauteng. Morero was elected regional chairperson in June 2022. He was sworn in as a councillor in July 2022.
