Former Joburg mayor Kabelo Gwamanda will not be reinstated to his position as MMC of community development, the ANC in Johannesburg said yesterday.

- Itumeleng Mafisa

This comes after Gwamanda threatened the speaker of council, Nobuhle Mthembu, with court action if he was not reinstated by 8am yesterday.

Gwamanda, through his lawyers Kern, Armstrong & Associates, said he wanted coalition partners in the City of Johannesburg to come up with a political solution following his arrest.

However, the ANC's regional secretary in Johannesburg, Sasa Manganye, said reinstatement was "not an option".

"There will never be any reinstatement of an MMC. Reinstatement, from where I am sitting, is not even an option."
