THURSDAY PM LIVE BLOG: Hung municipalities, including eThekwini, to give KZN a headache
There are 18 hung municipalities in KwaZulu-Natal, which could prove troublesome for South Africa’s Local Government Association (Salga) and the Department of Cooperative Governance and Traditional Affairs (Cogta) in KZN.
The Electoral Commission of SA in the province released the preliminary results for the 2021 local government elections on Thursday at the results centre in Mayville, Durban.
