DA thrashes ANC in Thaba Chweu
by-election
By BRIAN KAJENGO
The DA won another decisive
by-election victory in Ward 12 Thaba Chweu, when it thrashed the ANC with a
winning margin of over 87,6%, obtaining 541 votes over 76.
The ward became vacant after
Sonja Boshoff nominated to represent Mpumalanga
at the National Council of Provinces, and in the wake of an intensive campaign,
led to the election of Nicko Janse van Vuuren to take the DA’s work forward.
DA’s James Masango says residents’
overwhelming endorsement of the DA shows that the DA is increasingly becoming
the party of choice for South Africans to provide their service delivery needs,
secure in the knowledge that a vote for the DA is a vote for a better life.
“The DA extends its most
sincere thanks to each and every voter who came out to cast their votes today,
and we are humbled by the confidence that residents hold in our abilities to
hold the Thaba Chweu municipality to account.” James Masango says.
He went on to say we are confident that Nicko and his
DA colleagues in the local council will continue to serve the needs of Ward 12
residents, along with those of the greater Thaba Chweu area.
