Frank Chikane denies ANC court action over Johannesburg mayoral bid
Frank Chikane has denied taking the ANC to court over its Johannesburg mayoral candidacy, calling the report fake and accusing those behind it of trying to create divisions within the party ahead of the local government elections.
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.
