SACP unsurprised as Thabazimbi records another hung council
The SACP in the Thabazimbi Local Municipality in Limpopo says it is not surprised by results.
The South African Communist Party (SACP) in Thabazimbi Local Municipality, Limpopo, expresses no surprise over the recent local government elections. The results declared Thabazimbi a hung council for the third consecutive time since 2016. Neither the African National Congress (ANC) nor the Democratic Alliance (DA) secured a clear majority. The ANC garnered 29% of the votes, while the DA received 19%. The SACP secured 12% of the ballot.
Charley Nkadimeng, the Provincial Spokesperson for the SACP, commented on the outcomes. He described them as concerning, stating that the people of Thabazimbi have been suffering due to poor leadership, lack of vision, instability, corruption, and maladministration. The SACP intends to engage with the communities to alleviate the burdens of maladministration and corruption.
