It comes a week after the city got a new mayor.
Eugene Modise has been elected as the new deputy mayor of the City of Tshwane.
Modise is the chairperson of the ANC in Tshwane.
He was elected unchallenged.
His election is a result of the ANC’s new relationship with ActionSA, the Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) and other smaller parties.
There has been a concerted effort by the Provincial Executive Committee (PEC) in Gauteng to take over all municipalities that fell into the hands of the DA since the 2021 Local Government Elections (LGE).
In his speech on Monday at the celebration of 100 days of the Government of National Unity (GNU), ANC provincial chairperson said he was pleased with the inroads that the party had made in reclaiming some municipalities which the ANC had lost.
He said Johannesburg, Tshwane and Ekurhuleni were firmly under the influence of the ANC.
There were plans to next elect an ANC mayor in the Mogale City Local Municipality.
This comes after the ATM mayor in that region, Danny Thupane resigned on October 10, after a discussion with the ANC.
This is a developing story.
