The ANC and the DA in Gauteng are at each other’s throats over the political leadership of the country’s two top metros.
“The disruption of council by the DA is again evidence that those who previously led the city are unable to adhere to democratic values and are unprepared to work for the people of Johannesburg and their development,” said ANC Johannesburg secretary Dada Morero.
“The ANC condemns the undemocratic actions of the DA in the City of Johannesburg. Once again, the DA has sought to undermine the democratic outcomes of the council of Johannesburg that voted to elect a new mayor and speaker for the city in December 2020. In Tshwane the ANC ganged up with the EFF in a bid to topple the DA-led coalition and on Thursday, the two parties walked out for the second time, collapsing the meeting.
