Herman Mashaba resigns as mayor of Johannesburg

City of Johannesburg mayor Herman Mashaba has announced his resignation from both the DA and his position as the executive mayor. Mashaba will step down as a DA councillor on November 27 which will effectively mean he relinquishes his position as mayor.

“I cannot reconcile myself with a group of people who believe that race is irrelevant in the discussion of inequality and poverty in South Africa in 2019.” Mashaba said he was concerned about how, despite the DA only getting 38% of the votes in the 2016 local government, “elements in the party have expected me to govern arrogantly as if I have an outright majority”.

What about Ramaphosa?

I love a man who knows his nature and act accordingly either way.

Mashaba to resign as Joburg mayorHerman Mashaba is set to resign as Johannesburg mayor. Johannesburg will be a lawless shithole again Yini manje baba sowusebenze kangaka but i understand The future of DA is the same as it’s past and present. DA was formed to protect and preserve white privileges. It does not matter who is in charge either their black puppets or it’s true white leadership. Maimani has failed to grasp his role as a black puppet and must be replaced
