JOHANNESBURG - JOHANNESBURG - The Patriotic Alliance (PA) has pledged its support for the Johannesburg Mayor Dada Morero.
This was confirmed by PA deputy president Kenny Kunene ahead of Morero's first day of his no-confidence motion.

Kunene says the party will also stand by ANC Chief Whip Sthembiso Zungu, who is also being targeted in council.
But it’s not all good news for the coalition.
Kunene made it clear the PA won’t be extending the same support to Council Speaker Nobuhle Mthembu from ActionSA.
This as they are of the view that ActionSA has been 'hard' to work with and often votes against key resolutions in council.
Also throwing their weight behind the Mayor and the Chief Whip is Al Jama-ah.
Al Jama-ah says they will defend Johannesburg Mayor Dada Morero after a motion of no confidence was tabled against him. Former mayor Kabelo Gwamanda spoke to eNCA's @pule_jones. pic.twitter.com/4jyg4Qd7xL
