The Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) at Setsoto Municipality in the Free State say its ready to work with executive mayor, Komane Koalane.
Koloane was elected the new executive mayor in a special council meeting in Ficksburg.
His election follows the resignation of former mayor, Nthateng Maoke.
EFF leader in the Setsoto Municipality Shadrack Liphoko says they want to see lives of the people of Meqheleng improved.
Liphoko says, “I cannot say we trust this new mayor but the only thing we can say it that as a mayor if he is willing to work with then I think there will be progress but if he is not willing there will be no progress at all.”
The African National Congress (ANC) in the Free State says it welcomes the election of Koalane.
ANC Free State Secretary, Paseka Nompondo says, “We are very happy with the new mayor that was elected today and we think that he must really accelerate service delivery.”
