Twitter went into a frenzy on Tuesday after the Pietermaritzburg High Court declared the KwaZulu-Natal ANC's elections in 2015 unlawful and void.
Judge Jerome Nguni handed down the judgement, saying that the outcome of the eighth KZN provincial elective conference held in Pietermaritzburg in November 2015 was to be voided.

The case was brought by ANC councillor Lawrence Dube in May last year following the elections that saw former premier Senzo Mchunu being replaced by Sihle Zikalala.
