One hundred and twenty councillors voted for the motion that was brought forward but the ANC as they argued that Brink did not have the interest of servicing townships.

The DA's Cilliers Brink was toppled as the Tshwane mayor after a vote of no confidence against him. This is after complaints of a lack of service delivery in some parts of Tshwane.

They also accused him of misusing municipality funds. Eighty-seven councillors voted against the motion while one person abstained. – Herman Moloi
