P2 - 'You are not born deployed' - ANC KZN says as Zandile Gumede faces criminal charges
11 June 2019
The likelihood that embattled eThekwini Metro Mayor Zandile Gumede will return to the top position in the City of Durban is slim.
That is if statements made on Tuesday by ANC KwaZulu-Natal secretary-general Mdumiseni Ntuli is anything to go by.
In a press briefing following the provincial ANC lekgotla over the weekend, Ntuli fielded a barrage of questions on Gumede and the future of the City’s leadership.
Ntuli said that while the party would redeploy leaders who were found innocent in criminal matters, positions in public office were ultimately a collective party decision.
