Tempers flared outside the KZN legislature when the members of the MKP and the IFP met and police had to intervene to avoid what could have been the repeat of the Sunday incidents where members from both parties clashed in Dube Hostel and it resulted into one person dead and two being admitted in Baragwanath hospital in Soweto in Johannesburg.
The clash between the two parties follows the motion of no confidence which was brought forward by the MKP in an attempt to remove the KZN Premier Ntuli.
This was not the first attempt to oust Ntuli as they brought the same.motion in October which was later turned down by the Speaker
The debate on the motion to oust KZN Premier Thami Ntuli has since been set for 15 December 2025.
The motion emanates from the trip where Ntuli and his other four members of his executive went to the USA and the trip cost tax payers over R2 million.
The KZN Legislature Speaker Nontombeko Boyce said that she was allowing this motion to be held on December 15 which will give the MKP enough time to lure other parties to vote with them.
“I fully recognize the motion from other parties. The legislature is under no obligation to schedule the dates on a specific time by the opposition party. The motion will be debuted on
IFP Youth Brigade Chairperson Thrmbelani Magubane said that the motion of no confidence against Ntuli was a concerning matter for the KZN people.
“This is a disgrace considering that this is wasting the tax payers money. Our Premier has managed to turn things around and accomplish many things. The MKP is playing politics. They don’t like the fact that Ntuli is delivering, when the premier came into the office everything was beyond repair.
“The MKP does not have a clear plan. Yes the premier may have his faults but he is getting there. Ntuli has only been there for about a year now and we say that he should be given an opportunity to run this province as he sees fit,” he said.
Attempts to get comment from the MKP proved fruitless as the MKP spokesperson Nhlamulo Ndlela”s cellphone rang unanswered.
