ACTIONSA National Chairperson Michael Beaumont says the party has decided to dismiss the two councillors at the City of Tshwane council for allegedly voting with Congress of the People (COPE) and the African Transformation Movement (ATM) for the positions of mayor and Speaker, respectively.
“The decision to terminate the membership of Councillors Mhlana and Baloyi arises directly from the investigation into councillors who are believed to have voted for former Councillor Makwarela on 28 February 2023.”
“The investigation into the Councillors has been ongoing for weeks and has come to the conclusion that the Councillors voted for Makwarela on 28 February and for the ATM candidate for Speaker, Councillor Ndzwanana, on 13 March. It is further believed that Baloyi provided the location of the polygraph tests of 6 March to the EFF and was at least partially responsible for the disruption that occurred on that day,” Beaumont said.
