The Hawks and the auditor-general must investigate the various allegations and counter-allegations between Nelson Mandela Bay’s mayor, Athol Trollip, and his deputy, Mongameli Bobani. This was suggested by United Democratic Movement (UDM) leader Bantu Holomisa in a letter on Wednesday. The future of the coalition in Nelson Mandela Bay municipality is under threat, with the mayor and his deputy constantly trading allegations. The coalition has been under pressure since Trollip recalled Bobani as mayoral committee member of public health. The DA sent a letter of demand to the UDM, asking it to deal with Bobani or risk him being removed as deputy mayor.
