By-elections: Pappas speaks about 'Stop MK' posters, while Hlope make his campaign debut
DA leader Chris Pappas recently sat down with News24 and spoke about the party's poster message:"Stop MK Party."
There will be nine by-elections in the province, but the focus has been on Ward 14 and Ward 24 in the Ray Nkonyeni municipality, where the MK Party has deployed heavyweights in their campaign; Ward 33 , 35 , and 36 in eThekwini. There are DA posters in eThekwini with the words"Stop MK", and they've existed ahead of the general elections and they now complement new DA posters that have been put up ahead of the by-elections.
ANC provincial secretary Bheki Mtolo, on the campaign trail in the Tolomane Mnyayiza region in the Ray Nkonyeni Municipality, told a gathering that a renewed ANC will understand that leaders will come and leave.In an apparent reference to Zuma's cult-like following, Mtolo said,"My pastor used to say: 'don't believe in me. Believe in God. A pastor is a person. Maybe I may get lost in my ways one day, and then I start criticising God'.
"That's why we all get sworn at and we're called thieves because we have a few thieves among us. We've even did toyi-toyis for others ," Mtolo said.
