Battle for Cape Town: ‘Before we vote, we first want help,’ say Delft residents | LGE 2026
Residents in Delft South say prolonged electricity outages and alleged poor service delivery have left them disillusioned ahead of the local government elections.
ANC Dullah Omar Region chairperson Ndithini Tyhido has announced his resignation from his position as a City of Cape Town councillor, ahead of the upcoming local government elections. The decision, effective immediately, comes as the party ramps up its efforts to secure a victory in the upcoming polls. Tyhido will retain his role as the party's leader in the region, as well as his membership within the ANC, according to a statement released by the party.
The party praised Tyhido's dedication to representing the people of Cape Town and commended his efforts in representing residents' interests. With the election campaign entering its final phase, the ANC has urged Tyhido to leverage his experience and expertise to mobilize communities and secure a decisive mandate, which they believe will enable them to build a better future for Cape Town.
