Another meeting is scheduled for Tuesday. It will be the third attempt to elect a Mayor after Murunwa Makwarela’s resignation earlier this month. MEC Khumalo says what is happening in Tshwane is not in the interest of the municipality’s residents. “It is more about internal squabbles of parties and, therefore, it puts a challenge on the whole concept of coalition governments in our country because coalition governments are not necessarily informed by service delivery issues but informed by party interests. So we are not happy with it.
