Johannesburg to elect new mayor

The City of Joburg will convene a special council meeting to elect a new mayor on Friday after the passing of Jolidee Matongo, who died in a car crash two weeks ago.

Matongo, who took over after the death of his predecessor Geoff Makhubo, served for just over a month.

The governing party is confident that its candidate Mpho Moerane will be elected.

Moerane is a former MMC for environment and infrastructure services in the city and ANC Johannesburg regional treasurer.
