The IFP-controlled municipality in former president Jacob Zuma’s rural home town of Nkandla is challenging a high court decision to remove its municipal manager Langelihle Jili for not having the legally required experience.

He said they would keep putting pressure on Jili despite the fact that he and the council had appealed the court judgment.

In September last year, KwaZulu-Natal co-operative governance and traditional affairs MEC Nomusa Dube-Ncube went to court to challenge Jili's appointment because he did not have suitable qualifications for the job. According to the court papers, Jili fell way short of this requirement, with only 13 months' experience.Zuma's rural home town of Nkandla has been the subject of an intense battle for control between the ANC and IFP for a number of years. It was considered an embarrassment to the ANC that the IFP controlled the municipal structures that have authority over Zuma's homestead.
