The municipal manager of the beleaguered Ganyesa-based Kagisano-Molopo Local Municipality in the North West, Olaotse Bojosinyana, is legally challenging the termination of his contract.
This comes after the administrator appointed by the provincial government, Sello Maroga, served him with papers informing him that his contract has been ended.
