New Johannesburg Mayor to be elected on Wednesday - SABC News - Breaking news, special reports, world, business, sport coverage of all South African current events. Africa's news leader.

City of Johannesburg Council Speaker Vasco Da Gama postponed last week's sitting, citing the need to seek legal opinion on the interpretation of council rules.has confirmed that a new mayor will be elected on Wednesday.

Da Gama insists that his reasons for postponing the council meeting last week was to get clarity on the ambiguous and confusing Municipal Structural Act. “Because the excuse that there was no proper legal interpretation of a majority is an excuse, it’s convenient and it’s tantamount to the subverting democracy and we view this in a very serious light that is why as the provincial government on Thursday we will announce further practical measures that we will be taking in both Tshwane and Johannesburg.”

“The issue with MEC Maile and the ANC in general is that there are more stark problems and very urgent problems in local municipality and districts that they are completely ignoring. Westrand District couldn’t pay salaries, Emfuleni, Merafong, and Rand West Municipality particularly and to some extent Lesedi they’ve been in dire straits for a long time. I would urge the MEC for Cogta to focus on those municipalities and stop throwing a blind eye to their problems.

I thought there will be by-elections. How does this work?

Wont change nothin
