Meets WP:NPOL, just feels a little anemic around sources. More content and more reliable sources would help this get accepted. Bkissin (talk) 19:12, 9 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I was going to accept this per NPOL, but just wanted to add a cite of the Parliament website... and it seems he's not listed there as a sitting MP. Having then looked at Mzwanele Nyhontso it seems there may be more to this than at first meets the eye. Can we please make sure that this short stub is factually correct? DoubleGrazing (talk) 09:00, 10 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
DoubleGrazing It is not accurate. Joko was initially a replacement for Mzwanele Nyhontso, but the court ruled in favour of the other faction, so Nyhontso was restored. That said, the subject probably would meet WP:NPOL having been a short-lived member of parliament, but the article needs to reflect the situation correctly.

This news article: de Lange, Ilsa (13 Sep 2018). "PAC gets court order to remove its sole MP from parliament".</ref> seems to suggest that the PAC tried to install Joko as an MP, but was not successful. Is that the case? I would suggest he still possibly counts as notable under NPOL, particularly as he was intended to replace the PAC's only member. Newystats (talk) 05:12, 15 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
