The ANC facilitated the meeting.

THE ANC FACILITATED THE MEETING ON TUESDAY

“In addressing the concerns of ANC members, and indeed all South Africans, the ANC’s leadership will urgently address the unethical behaviour and ill-discipline of members, including leaders of the party.

“We are determined that only members whose reputations are beyond reproach will be included in our list of candidates for Parliament and Provincial Legislatures. This means that those implicated by the Zondo Commission will not be included in our lists if the ANC Integrity Commission has not cleared them.”

‘MBALULA REGRETS THAT HE MADE COMMENTS THAT IMPUGNED THE INTEGRITY OF MSIMANG’

The ANC also added that Fikile Mbalula regrets that he made comments that impugned the integrity of Msimang, suggesting that he was vulnerable to taking a bribe from a newly established political formation or, for that matter, any other source.

“The resolve is steadfast. Our commitment to transformation and renewal of the ANC and the green shoots of the turnaround seen in the national census data make the endeavors to create a better South Africa.”

Msimang resigned last week, citing “endemic corruption”.

EARLIER THIS WEEK MBALULA REFUSED TO APOLOGISE TO MSIMANG

This comes after Mbalula refused to apologise to Msimang after Mbalula accused him of resigning through the media.

Mbalula accused Msimang of having tendered his resignation through the media and not directly to the ANC.
