ANC councillor and SA National Civic Organisation’s executive member, Mteteleli Joka was gunned down in Gugulethu last night.
The 41-year-old Joka was walking home when shots was fired at him by people on foot.
The killing appears to be an assassination.
According to reports it is determined that allegations of infighting within Sanco could have sparked the shooting.
Provincial spokesperson for the ANC Garth Strachan says “the ANC condemns the killing of councillor Joka”.
Strachan added that “this killing and the killing of the police officer in Woodstock reaffirms that we need to mobilise communities”.
He called on the community of Gugulethu to come forward with any information that could help bring the culprits to book.
