ActionSA to contest 11 municipalities in Limpopo: Mashaba
Mashaba was addressing scores of supporters at the party's "Mashupa Tsela" rally.
ActionSA President Herman Mashaba announced that the party will contest in 11 municipalities within Limpopo during the upcoming local government elections. The announcement came during the party's "Mashupa Tsela" rally held at Seshego, Polokwane.
Following the rally, Mashaba addressed a large gathering of supporters and unveiled his party's plan to tackle some of the challenges faced by communities in the province. He expressed his confidence in the party's mayoral candidates, stating, "I have faith in the party's mayoral candidates."
Mashaba's initial thoughts about the invitation to contest were initially focused on Johannesburg. He reflected, "When they first conceived the idea of inviting me, I was like guys I am a mayoral candidate for the City of Johannesburg and ActionSA needs to win Johannesburg and I need to go finish the job that I started in 2016."
However, upon observing developments in Limpopo, Mashaba decided to support the people of the province by contesting the elections there. He expressed his satisfaction with the decision, saying, "I feel so great that I took that decision to be here to give support to the people of Limpopo who are going to bring changes to this province."
