UPhaliso ngomnye wabaninzi abathe abalifumana ithuba lokuvota ngenxa yeengxaki zekomishini ezimeleyo yonyulo eMalahleni nakuzwelonke.
Ingxaki yenethiwekhi yeyona iphambili ebangele ukuba abantu balinde ixesha elide befuna ukuvakalisa izimvo zabo ngokuvota.
“Andivotanga, ndibuhlungu kakhulu, ndilinde isithuba seeyure ezintathu ndilinde emgceni, ndincame ndahamba kuba bendicele ixesha emsebenzini,” kutsho uPhaliso.
Ngaphandle kwakhe baninzi abantu abangavotanga ngoku kodwa kuMasipala waseMalahleni.
“Mna bendivota okokuqala, kona ndimdala qha bendikade ndingafuni ukuvota, ngoku xa ndifuna ukuvota ndilindiswa ixesha elingaka,” kutsho uPhaliso.
Kukho amarhe okuba ukucima kwenethiwekhi kunike ithuba lokuba kwenziwe amaqhinga ekungekho bungqina bawo, kutsho abahlali. Uninzi lwabo luncokole neSolezwe ngokungavoti kwabo, bacele ukukhuselwa kwamagama abo.
“Ndicela undikhusele, ndinomsindo kakhulu ndifike esitishini endiqhele ukuvota kuso, kwathiwa igama lam alibonakali, oko ndavota kule ndawo inye, ndibuhlungu kakhulu,” kutsho ixhoba lokungavoti.
