The mayoral election in a Richards Bay municipality descended into a fight when an EFF councillor allegedly punched an ANC councillor in the face.

The fight is said to have taken place before the election of Dr Nkonzoyakhe Donda as mayor and EFF councillor Nkululeko Ngubane as deputy mayor in the IFP-led coalition municipality. IFP councillor Tobias Gumede was elected as speaker., the fight was about who should lead one of the key economic hubs of the province after the IFP made a U-turn and fielded its own candidates to contest the speaker and mayoral positions instead of supporting the ANC.

The publication said ANC spokesperson in KwaZulu-Natal Nhlakanipho Ntombela accused the IFP of betrayal, while IFP provincial chairperson Thamsanqa Ntuli said it was the ruling party who went back on an agreement that if a party claimed more seats it would take over governance uninterrupted. Ntuli was quoted as saying: “The ANC wanted to back stab us. They were working behind our backs, conniving with the NFP party in Abaqulusi, Nongoma and eDumbe to take power away from us.”

We are going to witness number of similar cases, bcose political landscape is gradually changing in the country. watch the space

Why am I not surprised? Trust an EFF to be involved in any kind of ruckus. And going by Clown CIC's performance at their media briefing, it is easy to see where it comes from. A fish rots from the top & this is what is happening to EFF. There is little decent behaviour from thugs

What

This is why I don't vote. We are asked to choose from the least among us.

And these are supposed to be our leaders 🙄 😒. We're truly FUCKED up.

So you people for the entire elections you were waiting for this to happen then make noise about it the whole day even week.

Such classy people.

How politics in SA have evolved ,,

Andile Lungisa vice versa

Childish.

What a knock out, they owe us round 2.

Glad to see our politicians are cementing us as a joke of a country

pierredevos This is how we teach children to grow up and become violent.

Things like this happen! I don't see anything wrong with that..

The thing is that, the entitlement from the ANC is glaring wanting to cling onto these Municipalities by hook or crook.

thuglife

Robust engagement right? 🤔😏

Where was he supposed to punch him? In the nuts?

So this is it, hey? Politics (and democracy?) In SA 2021?

Amaphara eEFF

Dankie fighter

Good news

Allegedly! 🤣🤣🤣

He just earned himself a corner office at national office

pierredevos Well it IS a fascist party so technically it’s part of the platform ppl voted for.

Uncouth

Allegedly? Did you not see the video? He punched.

SA is governed by thugs. Cry the beloved country.

Madness

These are the best friends of HermanMashaba

Video please 🤣🤣🤣

The EFF are so happy that they can be physically present at meetings now. Now more throwing virtual bottles in Zoom meetings.

UbabuMthembu ushaye uThembelani, naye uThembelani uyiphakile

pierredevos Mr Overalls throws a straight jab to Mr. Suit's face. He's hurt, he may change his mind and get out, Mr. Overalls not backing down, he wants the former Mayor out by force. Now everybody's up, the referee needs to stop this....

I have been very fruitful ever since I have been investing with shantelll_142 .I contacted Mrs shantelll_142 after series of testimonies i saw online, i took courage and started investing with him. I have made my third withdrawal which are ten times the initial investment.

EFFSouthAfrica and hooliganism are like Siamese Twins!

The racist DA party with 97% mayors that are all white 100% white chief whips and 97% speakers in a country with 80% Africans. While it only won 20% votes in some municipalities 26% but still act like senior party and take everything.

Just keep on fighting for tenders idiots,will never have a proper service delivery mxm

Such things happen mostly in KZN

Dat political party hardly admits when it's wrong. They are going to defend this and say he was hit with a 'revolutionary fist'

He was insulted

pierredevos Such charming behaviour!

Where the brains stop the fists takes over.

And then we wonder why SA is the most violent country in the world
