Johannesburg - President Cyril Ramaphosa’s “new rule” that ANC members and leaders charged with corruption or accused of serious crimes should step aside has hit another rock.
The NEC this month held a meeting to discuss the issue of party members who were appearing in court on allegations of crimes, including graft. “The North West delegation presented a misleading report to the NEC this weekend and did not include themselves. They left out people with case numbers and instead targeted individuals with no criminal charges who faced allegations which were never tested in any court of law,” said an ANC leader and MPL, who asked for anonymity.
Independent Media has seen a new list compiled by senior members of the ANC in the province which include Dantjie, Chauke, Speaker Thandi Modise, Finance MEC Motlalepula Rosho, Health MEC Madoda Sambatha, Public Works MEC Saliva Molapisi and former tourism MEC Desbo Mohono. In 2014, Modise was charged with cruelty to animals after the SPCA and police discovered that she had neglected animals at her Modderfontein farm in Potchefstroom which resulted in the death of 58 out of 85 pigs. It had been reported that her case was postponed by the Potchefstroom Regional Court to December.
Health MEC Madoda Sambatha was also said to be facing charges in connection with Covid-19 personal protective equipment, while Agriculture and Rural Development MEC Desbo Mohono was said to have contravened National Treasury regulations in an appointment of a security company and also paying service providers who had not completed their contractual obligations.
