The uMkhonto we Sizwe Party has snatched from the African National Congress, ward 28 in KwaDukuza, in KwaZulu-Natal's iLembe District Municipality. The ward became vacant when Vishnugopal Govender resigned as ANC ward councilor, and contested the by-election as an MK Party candidate. He received 62 per cent of the votes. Candidates from the ANC, Inkatha Freedom Party, Economic Freedom Fighters and the MK Party contested the ward. For a look at what this means, Sakina Kamwendo spoke to SABC Senior Researcher, Maswele Ralebone.
