NFP in KZN to vote with ANC
Updated | By Khatija Nxedlana
The National Freedom Party (NFP) has decided to vote with the ANC in tomorrow's Local Government Elections.
The announcement was made at a joint media briefing by the two parties in Durban.
The NFP won't be contesting tomorrow's municipal polls after they were disqualified for missing the Independent Electoral Commission's (IEC) deadline to pay the registration fee.
On Friday, the Electoral Court of South Africa dismissed the NFP's application to have the decision overturned.
The ANC's Super Zuma says they agreed to cooperate as the parties share the same values, desires and vision for the citizens of KwaZulu Natal.
"Although the NPF remains a separate and distinct political party from the ANC, the differences between the two never prevented the ANC from governing as a team for the benefit of KZN communities," he said.
