In 2016, Trollip was referred to the South African Human Rights Commission (HRC) for alleged human rights abuses and unfair labour practices at the family farm near in the Eastern Cape, allegations that he strenuously denied. The HRC later abandoned the case, citing the difficulty of investigating events alleged to have happened between the 1970s and 2000s, and that the incidents happened before the current, constitutional dispensation and involved “issues of pre-jurisdiction”.

In August 2018, the opposition finally succeeded in replacing Trollip. He was succeeded by Bobani. DA councillor Victor Manyati abstained from supporting his party’s position in a speaker vote, and the DA and its supporters left the council. Bobani was then elected with 61 votes in favour, and none against. The DA legally challenged the removal of Trollip as executive mayor. The vote of no confidence in Trollip occurred after a DA council walkout and therefore the DA states that there was no longer a quorum in the council when the vote occurred. However, the high court upheld Bobani’s appointment, stating that Manyathi had still been a DA member at the time and as such there was a quorum. Trollip subsequently assumed the post of leader of the opposition of the Nelson Mandela Bay council.
