JOHANNESBURG - The Congress of the People has given President Cyril Ramaphosa seven days in which to remove Correctional Services Minister Michael Masutha and his deputy Thabang Makwetla.
The two government officials have been accused of corruption by Cope over alleged connections with African Global Operations, formerly known as Bosasa. Makwetla allegedly received financial help from the facilities company Bosasa in the form of security upgrades at his home. Cope's Dennis Bloem says: “The minister must be removed. The deputy minister must be removed. That’s why we are giving Mr Ramaphosa seven days to act.”
Just say 'Terror Lekota' because really now, what is COPE?

Mampara of the week: Michael MasuthaA “Good Samaritan” offered poor Mike shelter in the Windy City when he attended the ANC’s Siyanqoba rally in 2016. Mike flew down and spent a weekend in the mansion.

Lol...He has already prepared the answer...All these comrades knows every Q and A... Lies lies and more lies
