THE DA has announced a second wave of mayoral candidates across the Western Cape, as the party ramps up its campaign ahead of local government elections now less than eight months away.

- MURRAY SWART

Western Cape DA leader Tertuis Simmers yesterday introduced six candidates who will contest municipalities across the province, saying they would carry the party’s “message of hope” to residents.

The candidates are Koos Steyn (Breede Valley), Yves Blaauw (Cederberg), Dirk Kotzé (Mossel Bay), Marius Koen (Saldanha Bay), Dr Jacques du Toit (Swellendam), and Roelof “Boffie” Strydom (West Coast District).

Simmers said the candidates are ready to “roll up their sleeves and get to work”.
