Malema reiterates: 'DA should let us run Tshwane' | lizTandwa
The EFF is to enter into talks with the DA in a bid to take control of Tshwane, party leader Julius Malema said on Thursday at a media briefing to reflect on its performance during the elections.
Referring to DA mayor Stevens Mokgalapa as a 'caretaker mayor', Malema said the party was not planning on challenging his position through a motion of no-confidence. The EFF is in an informal relationship with the DA in the cities of Johannesburg and Tshwane and it is through Malema's party that the second largest political party in South Africa was able to take control of the capital city from the ANC in the 2016 local government elections.
"The EFF has requested a meeting with the leadership of our party regarding hung councils... that is all for now," Malatsi told News24. Malema added that he was 'reluctant' to initiate any talks on Johannesburg mayor Herman Mashaba's future, saying he enjoyed the ANC's annoyance at Mashaba.
