South Africans Reject Jolidee Matongo As Johannesburg Mayor.

South Africans have rejected Jolidee Matongo as the newly elected executive mayor of Johannesburg.

This came after it was revealed that he is the son of a Zimbabwean immigrant.

He was elected after a special meeting to fill the post left vacant by Geoff Makhubo, who succumbed to Covid-19 complications.

Matongo was elected after receiving more than 260 council votes on Tuesday and remained uncontested, a rare occurrence in the city.

Many tweeps said they can’t allow their country to be ruled by foreigners.
