De Lille hits back: 'This is an attack for power and position'
10 January 2018
Cape Town - Patricia de Lille has hit back at those calling for her removal as mayor, saying their actions do not represent the City of Cape Town, and show they are pushing to get rid of her to replace her with a party member of their choice.
On Wednesday it emerged that the DA's Western Cape executive wants De Lille removed.
This comes as De Lille has found herself at the centre of a political storm, facing several allegations levelled at her by senior colleagues.
On Wednesday De Lille said the move by the DA's regional executive "does not represent the City of Cape Town DA caucus, because they never met".
