EFF expels 6 Mogale City councillors for voting with ANC
9 October 2017
Cape Town – The EFF fired six of its councillors in the Mogale City council for voting with the ANC.
The EFF’s Central Command Team took this decision after they met on Saturday after the completion of a disciplinary process.
"On the 11th of July 2017, six EFF Councillors contravened the EFF decision not to attend the Mogale City Budget vote Council meeting in which the ANC needed its budget to be passed. These councillors not only helped for a Council meeting quorum to be constituted, they also voted in favour of the proposed ANC budget," said EFF spokesperson Mbuyiseni Ndlozi in a statement.
"The organisation took exception to this conduct as it returned the public purse in the hands of the ANC. This is the same ANC that the people of Mogale City removed from the government following the 2016 local government elections outcomes. It is the same ANC that has been looting the public purse since 1994 to the exclusion and marginalisation of our people."
