Template:Infobox South African municipality Inkosi Langalibalele Local Municipality is a local municipality of South Africa. It was established after the August 2016 municipal elections by the merging of Imbabazane and uMtshezi local municipalities.[1]

Politics

The municipal council consisted of forty-six members elected by mixed-member proportional representation. Twenty-three councillors were elected by first-past-the-post voting in twenty-three wards, while the remaining twenty-three were chosen from party lists so that the total number of party representatives was proportional to the number of votes received. In the election of 3 August 2016 no party obtained a majority. The African National Congress (ANC) and Al Jama-ah formed a coalition to govern the majority. The following table shows the results of the election.[2][3]
