eThekwini to scrap salary of murder-accused councillor – a year after arrest: eThekwini municipality speaker Thabani Nyawose will finally recommend the termination of an incarcerated ward councillor’s salary, a year after his arrest.

During a picket outside Durban City Hall on Wednesday, ActionSA questioned why a councillor who had been in jail for a year was still receiving full perks.

So we are here as ActionSA because we have no choice but to blame you,” he said.
