Political parties gearing up for upcoming by- elections at Umhlabuyalingana Municipality ward 19 on the 26th of April 2023

 Ward 19 uMhlabuyalingana Municipality – KZN271, with 4 663 registered voters, which became vacant as a result of the councillor’s resignation. 

As local elections approach, political parties are gearing up to contest elections at Umhlabuyalingana ward 19. The Umhlabuyalingana Municipality in KwaZulu-Natal is no exception, with several parties vying for control of ward 19. Among them are the ruling African National Congress (ANC), the radical Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF), and the Inkatha Freedom Party (IFP).


This three-way race promises to be hotly contested, with each party touting their own unique vision for the future of the ward. ANC supporters argue that their party has brought about substantial development in recent years, pointing to upgrades of infrastructure and improvements in healthcare and education.


The EFF, meanwhile, is advocating for a radical overhaul of the political system, with emphasis on land reform and redistribution. They are also campaigning for free tertiary education and comprehensive social welfare programs.


For its part, the IFP has a long history in the region as an opposition party. While the IFP's campaign platform emphasizes promoting equity and unity amongst competing factions within the community, they are also highlighting accomplishments from their past rule. 


Despite differences in approach and policy position, all three parties agree on one point: improving living standards for residents in Ward 19. Given the challenges facing many South Africans today, poverty reduction is at the top of everyone's agenda as campaigning continues ahead of voting day.


Voters in the area must now assess which party offers them the best hope for realizing positive change. It remains to be seen which political party will emerge victorious, but all parties will be fighting hard to win support from voters who seek progress towards a better future.

Registration and voting will take place at the following stations:
