KwaZulu-Natal Premier Thami Ntuli.
The uMkhonto weSizwe (MK) Party says talks with other political parties are in progress to get enough votes to back its motion of no confidence against KwaZulu-Natal Premier Thami Ntuli.
The vote on the motion is scheduled to take place on Monday next week in the provincial legislature in Pietermaritzburg.
The MKP has 37 seats. It needs at least 41 votes in the 80-seat legislature for the vote to succeed.
The EFF, which has two seats in the legislature, says it will support the MK Party’s motion.
However, EFF Provincial Chairperson Mongezi Twala says talks are still ongoing with other parties to ensure they have enough votes.
“This government is directionless, they don’t have any tangible solutions to restore the hope of our people. So, we are going to be working with the MKP and we are going to be working with any political party that is willing to join us on this motion of no confidence. But what I can confirm with you is that we are still in talks. There’s nothing concluded as yet.”
