Judges Matter raises concerns about vacancies at Electoral Court
Judges Matter coordinator Alison Tilley says the lack of candidates is concerning.
The African National Congress in KwaZulu-Natal has vowed to sue the Democratic Alliance over a billboard advertising the eThekwini mayor and two senior city officials. The massive sign was erected along the N2 highway near Newlands East, just north of Durban, displaying the message "You can stop the water mafia." The billboard's owner removed it following complaints.
At an ANC election rally in Durban, Mike Mabuyakhulu, the ANC's Provincial Task Team convenor, branded the billboard a reckless ploy and a clear violation of the recently ratified Electoral Code of Conduct. He urged the Independent Electoral Commission (IEC) to address the issue, stating that all political parties had agreed to the Code of Conduct and the Code of Disinformation on September 29th.
Mabuyakhulu argued that the billboard's actions were irresponsible and breached both codes, thus warranting further action.
