Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 75519, member: 636"] Nthabiseng Tshivhenga from the EFF bailed on her Speaker gig at the Ekurhuleni Metropolitan Municipality after beefing with party bigwigs like Gauteng chair Nkululeko Dunga and fellow councillor Julius Mdluli. She ditched her council seat but stayed in the party, and they shipped her off to the Gauteng Provincial Legislature instead. The whole thing went down after some nasty public fights during council meetings that made the EFF look messy. Tshivhenga pushed pro-poor policies during her time running things, but the internal drama got out of hand. The party has not said who takes over as Speaker, and people are watching to see if this chaos hurts the EFF before local elections roll around. [/QUOTE]
