JUG-THROWING LUNGISA ELECTED
CHAIR OF WARD 2
MEC PUT NQUTHU MUNICAPILITY UNDER ADMINISTRATION
THE PROCESS IS A PRE-EVENT TO THE ELECTIONS THAT ARE TO BE HELD
T
HLOMUKA SAYS THAT RECENTLY IMAGES HAVE BEEN CIRCULATING ON SOCIAL MEDIA SHOWING CHAOS THAT ENSUED LAST WEEK IN THE COUNCIL CHAMBERS WHERE GUNS ENTERED THE NQUTHU MUNICIPAL CHAMBERS IN A RECENT MEETING THAT WAS HELD
HLOMUKA AND HIS TEAM VISITED THE MUNICIPALITY WHERE HE PUT THE NQUTHU
LOCAL MUNICIPALITY UNDER ADMINISTRATION,
WHAT IS STRANGE SEEMS STRANGE THOUGH ABOUT THIS EVENT IS THAT THE MAYOR AND SPEAKER WERE NO-WHERE TO BE SEEN
HLOMUKA SAYS THAT THESE IMAGES HAVE COMPELLED THE DEPARTMENT TO ACT AND IT RESULTED IN THE NQUTHU MUNICIPALITY BEING PUT UNDER GOVERNMENT ADMINISTRATION WHICH IS SECTION 139 1 B
WHAT IS RATHER CONFUSING IN THE NQUTHU MUNICIPAL MATTER IS THAT THE MUNICIPALITY JUST LAST WEEK WAS CONDUCTING A MAJOR HAND-OVER OF SERVICES TO THE COMMUNITY CONDUCTED BY THE MAYOR AND COUNCIL
​
ANOTHER ANALYSIS VERSION HAS TO DO WITH THE SEASON THAT LOCAL GOVERNMENT SPHERE HAS ENTERED, THIS IS A SEASON WHERE RULING PARTIES HAVE AN ADVANTAGE OF PUTTING UNDER ADMINISTRATION THOSE MUNICIPAITIES THAT ARE
OUTSIDE OF THEIR POLITICAL CONTROL USING SECTION 139 1 B OF THE CONSTITUTION

THE JUG THROWING ANDILE LUNGISA WAS ELECTED WARD 2 CHAIR ANDILE LUNGISA WHO STILL HAS A CLOUD HANGING OVER HIS HEAD AFTER SMASHING A WATER JUG ON THE HEAD OF ANOTHER CLLR. DURING A ROUT AT THE COUNCIL CHAMBERS OF
THE NELSON MANDELA BAY MUNICIPALITY
​
ANDILE LUNGISA SERVED 2 YEARS IN PRISON AND IS STILL UNDER PAROLE, HE HAS BEEN ELECTED CHAIR IN A BRANCH MEETING OF THE ANC'S WARD 2 OF THE NELSON MANDELA BAY IN THE EASTERN CAPE PROVINCE,
PART OF THE ANC'S PAROLE CONDITIONS IS THAT LUNGISA SHOULD NOT TAKE PART IN ANY OF THE ANC FUNCTIONS INCLUDING STANDING FOR ELECTION WHICH IS A PROCESS THAT REQUIRES ONE TO HAVE A PROPER RECORD MOSTLY FOLLOWING THE DOCUMENTS THAT HAVE BEEN CIRCULATING FROM ANC CONFERENCES,
THE QUESTION IS THAT AS CHAIR, HOW WILL HE UNDERTAKE HIS DUTIES IN AN ENVIRONMENT
WHERE THE OTHER HALF WANTS HIS IN AND THE OTHER WANTS HIS OUT
LUNGISA DESPUTED THAT SAYING SAYING THAT HIS MEMBERSHIP IS IN GOODSTANDING AND
IT´S BEEN AUDITED AND THAT ANC STRUCTURES NATIONALLY, PROVINCIALLY AND LOCALLY
ARE AWARE OF THAT AND HAVE NO ISSUES ...''WHICH IS WHY I GOT ELECTED WITHOUT
ANY ISSUES''..., IN MY BRANCH THE PEOPLE KNOW THAT I AM INNOCENT ...
SAID ANDILE LUNGISA
´´ AS THE ANC WE KNOW HIM AS SOMEONE WHO IS UNDER PAROLE, AND WE KNOW HIM AS
SOMEONE WHO IS STILL SERVING HIS PAROLE AND THE ANC CONSTITUTION DISALLOWS
MEMBERS WITH SUCH CONDITIONS TO STAND FOR PUBLIC OFFICE... ´´
