ActionSA president Herman Mashaba says the party would “celebrate” if March and March leader Jacinta Ngobese-Zuma made herself available to be the party’s mayoral candidate in eThekwini.
The Mail & Guardian understands that some in the party have been seriously lobbying Masahaba to convince Ngobese-Zuma to be their party’s eThekwini mayoral candidate if they are to stand any chance in the local government elections in November.
“If anyone wants Jacinta to be our mayoral candidate and if we can manage to get her to be our mayoral candidate in eThekwini, we will embrace it with both hands,” Mashaba told the M&G.
“Obviously, we have a relationship with March and March. I support what they do. As yet, there have been no conversations. She is focused on March and March and we are focused on ActionSA. If anyone can swing it for us, we will celebrate.”
