IFP snatches another ward from ANC

During the Wednesday by-elections, the ANC was able to retain its ward in the south coast despite IFP inroads. In Ray Nkonyeni municipality under the Ugu district, the ANC won ward 24 in Nyandezulu with 57% while the IFP got 39% of the votes.

Meanwhile the DA also retained ward 25 Msunduzi with a majority of 96%, an increase from 88% in the 2021 local government elections.

Provincial leader Francois Rodgers said the DA was encouraged by the trust citizens of KZN continue to have in the party.
