The motion against Joburg mayor Kabelo Gwamanda is unlikely to succeed.
ANC deputy secretary-general Nomvula Mokonyane said the views of the president were personal and not those of the party. She said Morero had the potential to lead the metro “like all other comrades in Johannesburg, but we do not have the numbers”.
“The ANC cannot have what it wants because it does not have the numbers and that is the reality. The issue of coalitions is that you never get what you want, but what is important is to have coalitions helping us to deliver services to our people,” she said. “The disadvantage of the politics of coalitions is that the ANC has the biggest numbers so there was an attempt to say, ‘let us regulate [coalitions] so there is also a respect for the numbers that parties receive’.”ALSO READ:
