The DA wants Mpho Phalatse back as the mayor of Johannesburg.
The DA has welcomed the resignation of Johannesburg mayor Thapelo Amad, saying it was clear during his short time in office he fell far short of the requirements for the position.
The move left the DA's multi-party coalition partners crying foul as they were not consulted.
Coalition partners have until Tuesday 2 May to negotiate and haggle over who should be the next executive mayor of Johannesburg.
Mpho Phalatse might make a return as Joburg mayor if the DA obtains its way. PICTURE: Deaan Vivier,
