Some in the ANC want Dada Morero to resign; they want Loyiso Masuku to take over from him. This means councillors who want Morero out will have to raise their hands in full view of their party members and the public. The motion against Morero was brought forward by Al Jama-ah, which claims to have lost confidence in the mayor’s ability to lead the City of Johannesburg. A faction of the minority parties has requested that the ANC recall Morero, but the ANC was still in consultation on the matter on Wednesday. Initially, the ANC had claimed that it would protect Morero from the motion of no confidence vote, but it remains to be seen if Masuku’s faction will use this moment to boot Morero out.
