Cool, so they expect it too and planning for such.

Oh and @ShaunSA - As I mentioned; they're getting the lock doors thing sorted. Not sure how you're taking such issue with her being locked and and thus not being able to run a city, but you do you...

Something that should have taken an hour or two max is "getting sorted" :ROFL:

My issue is them making a big issue of a locked door. But you do you :thumbsup:

Tania Campbell has been removed as the mayor of Ekurhuleni. 100 councillors supported her removal while 93 votes were against.
- Zintle Mahlati


The EFF has abstained from voting.

EFF abstained. PA and the other small parties have brought the ANC back into EKH. Nice.

/cue ASA/DA firefight

Let’s see how next week goes with CoJ.
Yup. But I'm not positive about that.

If EFF abstains again, then the UF would need 121 seats to hold JHB. DA and ASA make-up 115. Add IFP, VF+ and ACDP and they can hold.

So EKH is gone.
JHB is unknown.

Meaning the UF only have TSH and Mogale City left. With TSH being the stronghold.

Hmmmm, won’t the PA put another in place and bid with the ANC?
I don't know what the hell will happen.

I mean in a perfect world where only numbers mattered a DA/ASA/EFF coalition would govern (144 seats)...

So if the UF wants to make a comeback, they'll have to work out some kind of deal with EFF, although not formally coalescing with them. Since the non-UF smaller parties probably won't support them (which includes PA).

Was it done properly this time? Has the Mayor accepted the outcome?
LMAO seems like.

They're going to vote for a new mayor shortly. Probably Masina.
EFF will probably abstain again, with ANC/PA/other smallernyana parties bringing back the ANC.

The same kind of deal that the good Dr proposed to them that they couldn't do because of principles?
