IFP leader, Velenkosini Hlabisa says political parties must accept the outcomes of the 29 May polls because it will be the will of the people.
This is as KwaZulu-Natal has been identified as a potential violence hotspot in next week’s election in places like Nongoma, Ulundi and the Ethekwini region.
Hlabisa says he has full confidence in the country’s law enforcement agencies – should there be any violence in the province.

“We saw in 2021, the ANC was driven out in key areas where they were governing. Umhlathuze in KwaZulu-Natal is one of the biggest economic hubs in South Africa, ANC was taken out – there was no violence. They were taken out in Tshwane there was no violence. They were taken out of COJ and Ekurhuleni though they are back now in a headache coalition, but they were taken out and there was no violence. Political parties will have to accept that when the people have spoken, their will should be respected and I have confidence in our security in our country,” says Hlabisa.
