PAC aims to secure majority rule in Mnquma Local Municipality
Nyhontso also promised residents that they would prioritise rural development
The Pan Africanist Congress of Azania (PAC) aims to secure a majority in the Mnquma Local Municipality during the upcoming local government elections. The party's president, Mzwanele Nyhontso, announced that they will contest all municipalities in the Amathole District of the Eastern Cape. Nkosi Phathuxolo Tyali has been chosen as the PAC's mayoral candidate in Mnquma.
Tyali, a local traditional leader, emphasized the importance of rural development and skills training. He highlighted that the area is primarily rural, with over 85% to 90% of its population residing in rural settings. Tyali stressed the need for job creation, fertilizers, trucks, and medicine for animals, as farming is a significant aspect of the community.
The supporters expressed their hope that the PAC would bring positive change to their communities, particularly in addressing their immediate needs such as water, farming support, and healthcare for their livestock.
