ANC treasurer-general Paul Mashatile says the party will leave no office untouched in reducing its bloated salary bill, including a possible reduction of staff by almost half.

Speaking to Gauteng radio station 702 on Monday, Mashatile confirmed a Sunday Times report that the party was auditing its employees and had found a number of ghost workers on its payroll.

Ghost workers and those approaching pensionable age were expected to be the first to be removed from the wage bill. The Sunday Times reported that one of the biggest reasons for the ballooning salary bill was the secretary-general's office, which employed about 20 people, more than double the number before Ace Magashule took office. The presidency is said to have about 10 on the payroll.

“We all have to take the blame for it, all leaders have agreed. So there will be no holy cow that his office must not be touched. We are looking at all offices from the presidency [down].” Asked if the party struggled to pay salaries because it was bankrupt, Mashatile said this was not the case.

'ANC duped us into a coalition agreement they never fulfilled,' says AIC leader Mandla GaloAfter a poor showing at the local government elections in 2016, the ANC signed a coalition agreement with the AIC which would help it retain power in both the Ekurhuleni metro and the Rustenburg local municipality in North West. They duped you into thinking they would share the spoils of state looting. 😂 It serves them right. How could they trust a party whose continued existence is based on lies? Idiots. Why would u make a deal with hyenas?
