councillors did not have the numbers to elect their referred mayoral candidate.
“We are ready to elect a stable and accountable government for the Capital City today, but at the same time, it’s clear the ANC-EFF voting bloc does not have the numbers,” said Brink.Brink said the ANC-EFF had requested a two-hour caucus to deliberate on their voting strategy. “We anticipate that they’ll make every effort to disrupt the council meeting [and] buy time. We also know that Premier Panyaza Lesufi has been making personally every attempt he possibly can to persuade councillors who aren’t here today, to be here. Lesufi must be held accountable.”Meanwhile, ActionSA national chairperson Michael Beaumont also agreed that the DA-led coalition had the majority of seats in the council to elect Brink.
