OPPOSITION
THE agreement of the formation of the government of national unity (GNU) bore its first fruit yesterday when the ANC, DA, IFP and NFP in KwaZulu-Natal united in opposition to the EFF and MKP in electing IFP provincial chairperson Thami Ntuli as the new premier.
The four parties produced 41 votes for Ntuli against MKP/EFF’s 38 votes for MKP’s Phathisizwe Chiliza.
“I am humbled to be afforded the opportunity to serve the people of KwaZulu-Natal,” said Ntuli soon after the announcement was made just before 7pm.
