Local Government Election Debate - Mpumalanga 

We are turning our focus to the heart of South African democracy—local government. With the 2026 local government elections drawing closer, the battle lines are officially drawn.

Colleen Makhubele spoke to Vuyo Zungula – ATM, Adv. Anton Alberts – Freedom Front Plus, Bishop Adams ACDP and Sifiso Mahlangu – MKP National Spokesperson.
