JOHANNESBURG - The ANC hold on the City of Joburg remains intact.
Mayor Dada Morero has quite easily survived a motion of no confidence brought against him by the Democratic Alliance.
75 councillors voted in favour of his removal, while 144 opposed the motion, with 43 abstentions.
Chief Whip Sithembiso Zungu is also safe, but speaker Nobuhle Mthembu has been booted out.
