Election of council speaker expected in City of Johannesburg via SABCNewsOnline

maintains that councillor Vasco Da Gama is still the speaker of council, whilst the African National Congress says he was removed following last Thursday’s motion of no confidence vote.“The City manager for the City of Jo’burg has called a special council meeting to elect Speaker of council, because council doesn’t have a speaker at moment,” says Nthatisi Modingoane, of the City of Johannesburg.

There are claims that the DA has instructed its councillors not to attend Wednesday’s meeting, which could mean it would not have a quorum. “If DA councillors do not come, its upon them to account the citizens of Jo’burg and voters who voted them for abandoning their responsibility of being inactive in council,” says the ANC’s Jolidee Matongo.
