Former Midvaal mayor Bongani Baloyi has taken to his social media to announce on Monday that he was leaving the DA.

The star stated on his Twitter saying it was his decision but has not given reasons.

In his tweet, Bongani revealed it has been an amazing 14years and he is grateful for the opportunity.

“My journey with the @Our_DA ends today. It has been an amazing 14 years which I will always be proud of and I will remain grateful to the DA for their support and opportunities afforded to me. I leave out of my own agency. Not because I am being purged or any nonsense like that,” the 34-year-old former Midvaal mayor announced on Twitter.

It is unclear what Baloyi will do, but his tweets raised suspicion that he may join new kids on the block ActionSA.

“I leave on my time and terms, with a clean track record in government and the party. Now it’s time for me to focus on exciting opportunities before me. Good luck to the friends, colleagues and leadership of @Our_DA. We will meet somewhere. #BonganiBaloyiLeavesDA,” he said.

Baloyi become the youngest mayor when he took the reins at Midvaal in 2013 and went on to make it one of the most successfully run municipalities in country.
