Hlabisa spoke at a media briefing in Durban on Monday after the EFF called time on their coalition over the weekend.Hlabisa said they fell out with the EFF after it asked to run uMhlathuze Municipality in Richards Bay. He said handing over uMhlathuze to the EFF would have betrayed the people who voted the IFP into power."There is an assumption that we will lose 13 municipalities that will be in a corner of comparing Umhlatuze and losing 13 municipalities. As I have said, the basis of their assumptions is incorrect, it's one or two municipalities that will lose and we will not compromise or do an exchange.
