The ANC said on Monday that it was ready to occupy and exercise a strong opposition role in Nquthu municipality and to hold the IFP government accountable. KwaZulu-Natal ANC secretary Super Zuma said councillors had been taken through the process, and that they would form a strong caucus. "We are ready to play our role as an opposition in Nquthu. Our councillors know what to do and we have taken them through processes‚" said Zuma. He said the ANC was not deploying any provincial executive committee members in Nquthu on Tuesday, when the municipality was set to sit to elect a mayor and other executive committee members. The IFP will elect its mayor unopposed after a landslide victory in May’s by-elections in the troubled northern KwaZulu-Natal municipality.
