ZAThe Inkatha Freedom Party (IFP) has officially named Mkhuleko Hlengwa as its mayoral candidate for eThekwini, a municipality in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa. This announcement comes ahead of local government elections, where various parties are vying for control of municipal councils. Hlengwa's selection reflects the IFP's strategy to strengthen its presence in urban areas and challenge dominant parties like the African National Congress (ANC). The move could influence the political dynamics in eThekwini, which has historically been a stronghold for the ANC but has seen increasing competition from other parties.
