The Democratic Alliance’s (DA’s) Western Cape Provincial Executive Committee (PEC) will elect an interim provincial leader on May 29, following the resignation of Bonginkosi Madikizela.

He resigned last week amid the furore over his having faked qualifications on his CV.

In a statement issued on Wednesday, DA provincial chairperson Jaco Londt said nominations open on Wednesday and the elections will take place at the DA Western Cape's Provincial Council meeting on May 29.

According to the DA’s Federal and Provincial Constitutions, a provincial leader can only be elected at a Provincial Congress.

“We referred the matter to the party’s Federal Legal Commission who, after studying both the Federal and Provincial Constitutions, confirmed that our original understanding to proceed with the election of the Western Cape interim leader was correct,” said Londt.
