The people of KwaZulu-Natal will get the first real taste of the uMkhonto Wesizwe party’s leadership as it looks set to govern a number of municipalities for the first time.
In its first local government election, former president Jacob Zuma’s uMkhonto Wesizwe (MK) party appears to be the biggest winner in KwaZulu-Natal, having taken the lead in four municipalities previously governed by the ANC.
With 90% of the votes counted and independently verified across the province as of Friday night, the MK party is also leading in 14 other municipalities, although it has fallen short of an outright majority in these areas.
The results are impressive for a party contesting local government elections for the first time, particularly as some of its victories have come in municipalities where the ANC has enjoyed support for years.
