The ANC is reportedly seeking the backing of the Freedom Front Plus (FF Plus) ahead of next Wednesday's vote to elect a new mayor in Tshwane.
The Tshwane council is expected to elect DA councillor Cilliers Brink's successor, following his removal from the mayoral office.
Brink was voted out through a motion of no confidence last Thursday, after serving as mayor since March 2023.
While the DA is set to nominate Brink again as its mayoral candidate, discussions among various political parties regarding the new leadership in the City of Tshwane have been ongoing.
The ANC has approached FF Plus in its efforts to secure the mayoral position in Tshwane, Sunday Times has reported.
Negotiations between the two parties are taking place not just over Tshwane, but across all levels of government and are believed to be at an advanced stage.
