The Independent Democrats says that Helen Zille should stay on as Cape Town mayor.

Reports say that Zille will decide whether she is staying on as mayor or run for the DA’s soon to be vacated leadership, role this week.

Current DA leader, Tony Leon will be stepping down this coming May.

Caucus Leader in the Western Cape Simon Grindrod said that he believes that she must stay in the interest of consistent leadership for the city.

He said that this city has suffered too much as a result of changes in the leadership.

The DA’s leadership is being contested by the party’s chairperson, Joe Seremane and Eastern Cape leader Athol Trollip.
