The ANC has ordered its parliamentary caucus to investigate whether the utterances of some of its own MPs on Tuesday amounted to a violation of party rules and guidelines - after they used gender-based violence to score political points.

Mabe said what happened in parliament on Tuesday, which was started by one their MPs, demonstrated prejudice against women.

"The trivialisation of gender-based violence at the apex house of lawmaking undermines the very honour bestowed on the National Assembly. If left unattended, the kind of scenes witnessed in parliament can only serve to push back efforts by the ANC-led government to mainstream the fight against GBV. Speaking in parliament on the second day of the Sona debate on Wednesday, DA MP Angel Khanyile said it was shameful to watch ANC chief whip Pemmy Majodina and her deputy Doris Dlakude applauding Mamabolo and other ANC MPs for invoking GBV in a political fight.
