THE swearing-in of the newly elected Grootfontein Constituency councillor, Nelao Amagulu, was postponed at the last minute on Friday.
It is reported that the postponement became necessary because the magistrate, who was expected to officiate at the event, was allegedly not notified in time.
The swearing-in ceremony has been rescheduled and will take place on Monday.
Amagulu, who served as the Grootfontein councillor from 2015 to 2020, is returning to her former post after Councillor Elder Filipe, who replaced her in 2020, was elected as a member of the National Assembly last year.
She won last week’s by-election on Tuesday, having defeated the other three candidates — from the UDF, IPC, and PDM.
