Former Jozini Mayor Mathe ditches IFP for Jozini Congress

Former Jozini Mayor Mfananaye Mathe has resigned from the IFP and joined Jozini Congress

Mfananaye Mathe, the ex-mayor of Jozini, has left the IFP and joined the newly established Jozini Congress. The move comes after allegations of financial mismanagement at the KwaZulu-Natal Municipality led to his removal from the mayoral position last year. In a WhatsApp message, Mathe emphasized the dynamic nature of politics and the importance of concentrating on enhancing community well-being.

On the other hand, IFP's national spokesperson, Mkhuleko Hlengwa, acknowledged Mathe's decision to leave the party, stating that he was dismissed due to his inability to carry out his duties effectively and in the best interests of the community. Hlengwa expressed hope for Mathe's future endeavors and assured that the party would defend and safeguard the interests of Jozini Municipality.
