The IFP has chosen to take its provincial manifesto launch to Umlazi as part of its aggressive campaign to snatch power from the ANC.
“We are serious when we say that the IFP will [win] KZN,” said Thamsanqa Ntuli, the IFP’s premier candidate and party chairperson in KwaZulu-Natal.
“The citizens of this province yearn for the IFP government because they know we are capable of it. There’s no other better place to launch our campaign than Umlazi.
He said the 2021 municipal elections, where the party dislodged the ANC in various councils, had given the IFP firepower to cause an upset in the May 29 general elections.
