ATM announces Vuyo Zungula as Johannesburg mayoral candidate

ANC veteran Frank Chikane has dismissed a circulating report claiming he has taken the party to court over the Johannesburg mayoral candidacy as fake. Chikane described the report as an attempt to create confusion within the ANC and emphasized his commitment to serving the people of South Africa. The ANC continues to face challenges with its candidate lists ahead of the local government elections, with the party challenging the Electoral Commission of South Africa (IEC) over candidates that were captured but not formally submitted.

Chikane, who was among the affected candidates, has no intention of pursuing legal action and is categorically rejecting the false claims made in the report.
