The former ANC North West Provincial Executive Committee (PEC) member, Mmoloki Cwaile was sworn-in as the new Member of Provincial Legislature (MPL) in the North West on Tuesday.
The outspoken Cwaile was at the forefront during #SupraMustFall campaign. The North West Provincial Legislature Speaker, Sussana Dantjie welcomed Cwaile from the ANC.
“Cwaile was sworn-in as Member of the Provincial Legislature (MPL) in the vacant seat left by the late Ndleleni Duma who recently passed on after long illness. Schedule Act 73 of 1988 schedule 1a Section 23(1)(b) states that in the event of a vacancy in the legislature to which this schedule applies, the party which the vacating member represented must fill the vacancy by nominating a person.
“In accordance with Section 107 of the Constitution of the Republic of South Africa, Cwaile took an oath and affirmed faithfulness to the Republic and obedience to the Constitution before he could begin to perform his duties in the Legislature,” Dantjie said.
