Nelson Mandela Bay councillor Andile Lungisa is expected to report to the clerk of the court at the Port Elizabeth magistrate's court by noon on Thursday, to commence serving his two-year prison sentence.

This is according to the National Prosecuting Authority in the Eastern Cape, which confirmed receiving notification on Wednesday of his last-ditch bid to evade jail for his water jug attack on a fellow councillor.

Lungisa’s appeal against his two-year conviction was dismissed by the Supreme Court of Appeal last week.
