Pretoria - As expected, the EFF and ANC councilors did not show up for a special council sitting in the City of Tshwane, forcing the sitting to collapse.
Acting Speaker Zweli Khumalo said a council sitting required to have at least 108 councillors present in order for the sitting to be legally constituted. He said that should both parties have reached an agreement a sitting would have been convened to appoint a new mayor and vote out Speaker Katlego Mathebe.
Moodey said attempts to host council meeting would be used by the DA to argue a case in court regarding steps it took to save the municipality from collapsing. He said the ANC has already accepted the decision made by the provincial executive to dissolve council and have fresh elections in Tshwane in line with Section 139 of the Constitution.
At the end of the day they will complain about how poorly they are paid, for doing nothing.
Acting like kids
DA must just accept that they don't have the numbers to govern. This is too much now
it's not surprising!! Their lack of commitment to South Africa goes to show that they are all for their political agendas and have no regard for SA citizens!!
