wards vacated by Tarnia Baker (Govan Mbeki, Ward 30) Henro Kruger (Emalahleni,
Ward 18) and Farhad Essack (Thaba Chweu, Ward 14).
“The DA is proud to announce the selection of the
following proportional councillors: Ms Gerda Amoraal to the Nkangala District
Council; and Ms Maria
Thulari to the Emalahleni Local Council.’’
DA
done with the application, interview and selection process of ward candidates
has also been finalised, and the following persons will stand as DA candidates
in their respective wards during the by-elections on 2 July: Govan Mbeki – Mr
Pierre Bosch; Emalahleni –
Ms Jolandi Breetzke; and The Thaba Chweu by-election is scheduled to take place on 13
