The ANC in the Western Cape is considering its options following the ousting of its mayor, Chad Louw, in Oudtshoorn. At 24, Louw was believed to be the country’s youngest mayor.

Oudtshoorn has a new Democratic Alliance-led council following the removal of ANC mayor Chad Louw. But the ANC says it will be taking legal advice on the matter.

“We can note thus far that the council meeting was not convened by the Speaker as per norm, and therefore at odds with the Municipal Systems Act,” said Mtsweni, adding that the meeting thus ran the risk of “illegality”.
