Former Moses Kotane Local Municipality speaker Gugulethu Mtshali. Picture: Moses Kotane Municipality/FacebookThe Speaker of the Moses Kotane Local Municipality, Gugulethu Mtshali, was forcibly removed from the council chamber by security personnel on Monday after refusing to resign following her removal from office.
The ANC Bojanala Regional Executive Committee had instructed the ANC caucus to avoid participating in both sessions, labelling them unprocedural. As a result, despite being supposed to call a meeting, Mtshali chose not to. An ANC member who spoke to IOL after the meeting said the issue could be resolved with intervention from provincial leaders.
Both ActionSA and the Democratic Alliance condemned the conduct of the councillors, stating that such behaviour would not be tolerated. ActionSA also threatened to escalate the matter to the Department of Cooperative Governance and Traditional Affairs .
