It’s official, DA interviews Helen Zille for mayoral candidate job in Joburg

DA Gauteng leader, Solly Msimanga, told IOL that interviews were conducted, but no one has been announced yet as a mayoral candidate.

“There’s no decision, interviews were conducted, and a whole lot of tests were done. We will wait for the processes to be completed,” he said.

Msimanga added that they haven’t made a decision to finalise Tshwane, Ekurhuleni, and Johannesburg.

He could not disclose the other members who were interviewed, but said Zille was one of them.
