Deputy state security minister Zizi Kodwa has come out strongly against corruption in the ANC, calling on the party to act decisively against it

This was after reports emerged that Magashule's close allies allegedly scored tenders related to Covid-19 procurement in his home province of Free State.President Cyril Ramaphosa's spokesperson, Khusela Diko, was suspended after her husband Thandisiwe was allegedly involved in two tenders worth more than R100m from the Gauteng department of health.

“We must work hard not to allow corruption to be a norm. There is a firewall around us, it is a disgrace to the movement,” Kodwa said at the meeting. He said there was a perception among the public that by virtue of their positions in and proximity to public resources, their family members got jobs and work in government.

He said the ANC has long diagnosed the problem of corruption but it was time to act. Kodwa said Ramaphosa was given a mandate and political will by the ANC to act against corruption when he was elected party president in 2017.
