"We have noted with great dismay, the recent attacks against politicalrepresentatives in various parts of our province.KwaDukuza has reason to beworried by images of violent attacks and death as they remind the people of KwaDukuza of the brutal shooting and killing of an innocent political activist who was shot and killed at a Voting station in Lindelani during the 2014 General Elections.
It is time toaffirm our stance against such killings and we are calling all political parties to unite in one resolve against violent intimidations and political killings as all parties are generally to the same end," he said.
