The Afrikan Alliance of Social Democrats wants the cash-strapped Mangaung Metro to be dissolved. Other opposition parties in the crisis-ridden metro are calling for the removal of the executive mayor, Mxolisi Siyonzana.

Siyonzana has already survived a motion of no confidence in May. However, his political foes in the troubled Mangaung council are far from backing down.Mangaung was placed under national intervention in April for failing to implement the financial recovery plan.

Siyonzana’s predecessor, Olly Mlamleli, was ousted through a motion of no-confidence in August 2020. This happened after disgruntled African National Congress councillors voted with the opposition to support her removal.
