KZN Cogta MEC Sipho Hlomuka is heading to the Constitutional Court to overturn the appointments of two ’inexperienced’ municipal managers.

Durban - KwaZulu-Natal co-operative governance and traditional affairs MEC Sipho Hlomuka is heading to the Constitutional Court on Tuesday to overturn the appointments of two “inexperienced” municipal managers.

Judge Koen set aside their appointments and ordered that the declaration of the appointments as invalid, null and void would not be retrospective but take effect from the day of his ruling. According to Tubane, the appointments are a matter of importance and great public interest that the department deals with frequently amid strong resistance from municipalities.

Sibiya’s appointment in 2016 was also challenged by Dube-Ncube on the basis that he did not have the requisite experience before she approached the high court to have the decision to appoint both municipal manager reviewed and set aside in 2018. “The delay in the present instance is compounded by a second and further manifestly unreasonable delay: the fact that the MEC further delayed unreasonably and, without explanation, perambulated in launching these proceedings,” read their submissions.
