The uMkhonto weSizwe (MK) party and the ANC will go head-to-head for total control of the City of Ekurhuleni in the 2026 local government elections.
The MK party has identified Ekurhuleni as its stronghold in Gauteng and is expected to hold its first birthday rally there this month.
During a party rally on the weekend, Dali Mpofu, a senior leader of MK, said the party wants to gain control of Ekurhuleni in the municipal elections.
The ANC lost power in Ekurhuleni in 2021. The party is now in a power-sharing agreement with the EFF and other smaller parties.
The ANC has several key positions in the council, including finance and the mayoral position.
