ANC party members are said to have walked out of the council meeting because they could not have a municipality that had a municipal manager who was not qualified.

Former president Jacob Zuma's Nkandla residence in KwaZulu-Natal. The town is in the spotlight over a fight between the IFP-controlled municipality and the ANC over the municipal manager's qualifications.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.

The resolution to appeal Pietermaritzburg High Court judge Piet Koen's decision last Thursday was taken during a council meeting on Tuesday after the ANC caucus had already walked out in protest against Jili's presence. The ANC caucus complained that they would not sit in a meeting presided by Jili after the court judgment that he be removed because he did not have suitable qualifications for the job.

Jili confirmed on Wednesday to TimesLIVE that the ANC caucus had walked out"because they wouldn't sit in a meeting presided by me." He said even before the council resolution to appeal the decision, his lawyers had already served a notice of intention to appeal the judgment. "We served a notification for intention to appeal and you can't enforce an order when we have 15 days to appeal. The appeal will now be heard by a full bench of the Supreme Court of Appeal. The ANC should have sat and heard what the council would say about the item which was on the agenda," he said."The municipality, council and myself are respondents in the court papers and the council resolved that it will appeal the court decision.
