The ANC is facing a lawsuit over its alleged failure to settle a R102million debt owed to a marketing agency that produced and installed thousands of its electioneering banners. TheStar_news

Johannesburg - The ANC is facing a lawsuit over its alleged failure to settle a R102million debt owed to a marketing agency that produced and installed thousands of its electioneering banners early this year. Renash Ramdas, the chief executive of KwaZulu-Natal based Ezulweni Investments, has filed papers in the South Gauteng High Court in Joburg as part of his company’s lawsuit against the governing party.

Neither Ramaphosa nor Magashule responded to him. All that Ramdas had received from other officials were promises, he said. ANC spokesperson Pule Mabe said the party would formulate its response to the litigation once it had all the details from its officials.“Once we’re privy to the issues and fully informed we’ll be able to come out and explain the position of the ANC on the matter,” Mabe told The Star yesterday. In a letter sent to Magashule in July, Ramdas, who describes himself as a loyal ANC member, stressed that he did not want to resort to the courts to settle the matter.

Another element that unsettled Ramdas was that this was the first time he had struggled to get money that was owed to his company by the ANC.

OP-ED: While focusing on the EFF, we ignore the ANC at our perilThe very people, the party, the ANC and its allies who brought us to where we are, are still with us. Concerned citizens should not be lulled into some kind of utopian wonderland, with attendant imaginings that ‘we have now diagnosed the problem’ so let’s get on with things. That is just wrongheaded — and dangerous. True. But the same amount of destruction that the ANC did in 25 years, the EFF shall achieve in 25 milliseconds.

Mugabe was our fellow combatant — Mbeki | News | Politics | M&GFormer president Thabo Mbeki has paid glowing tribute to his Zimbabwean counterpart, Robert Mugabe, at a memorial organised by the ANC in KwaZulu-Natal, calling him a “fellow combatant” who had made a massive contribution to the liberation of South Africa. But went on to repress hos own people and the reason why Zimbabweans are all over the world. A liberator who turned a dictator. Disgusting We all know someone else wrote the speech and he is just forced to read it. Mbeki is not stupid.
