JOHANNESBURG – The Economic Freedom Fighter ’s increased showing in this year’s polls appeared to have emboldened the party’s pursuit to govern the country’s capital, Tshwane.

This week the Democratic Alliance confirmed that discussions among opposition political parties about the future of the City’s mayor were underway.

The DA’s recently elected Gauteng caucus leader Solly Msimanga said the party’s federal leadership had been meeting with the EFF over the Tshwane mayorship. On Thursday, EFF leader Julius Malema told reporters that while they would not call for a motion of no confidence in Mokgalapa, as part of power-sharing, they would be pushing to have their own representative elected to the post.

On point engineering made limpopo poor and it was under administration.thats what is going to happen in tshine.

The Demon is the Palace

The EFF is going to loot that city blind!!

Be careful what you wish for

Eff and DA dont even hate each other. Dont know what hatred this is here. I'd say give them the metro let eff show everyone how they can work👍 we havnt seen them work yet, only throwing around hate speech and so on. Let thm work and prove themselves capable of running a metro 👍

If this deals fails, is going to be the DA more than the EFF that may leave to regret this opportunity. Local elections are around the corner.

That will be the end of Tshwane

The DA will be finished if it allows this. Your posters of keep ANC and EFF is still up. This move will prove that you have no game plan and the ANC becomes the center...rather have it be taken by force than to partake in the circus Our_DA

Wud make politics great tho not a bad idea at all

not so long ago DA was hell bent on dethroning both ANC and EFF, they've lost direction completely

I fucken hope not. They are a minority. Should be bus drivers first.

Sharing is caring!

DA has lost the plot

It's time we see an an Eff mayor,see how they deliver

Good Juju, so you and your clowns can really stuff it up. That's all the effing party can do - loot, look at the VBS Bank saga. PAY BACK THE MONEY.

Shame poor DA ukundlakathekiswa yiEEF ukuphisa ngepower ngenxa yokufuna ukuba sesikhundleni

This sounds like power hungry approach..

They should have a co mayorship, the EFF need to earn it's position of trust.

Yes is power sharing now

Anything is possible...

DA, EFF in talks about installing a red beret mayor in TshwaneEFF leader Julius Malema said on Thursday that his party was in negotiations with the DA to formally partner in governing Tshwane and Johannesburg. At long last two parties coming together as sensible adults. Politicians uses us as their ponies in political chess. ANC, DA and EFF are as good as Unilever products. Same WhatsApp group So much for the DA's despicable and cynical 'rooi gevaar' tactics of lumping the ANC with the EFF during the elections campaign. Shameless hypocrites.
