Mantashe lashes out at former leaders criticising Ramaphosa - SABC News - Breaking news, special reports, world, business, sport coverage of all South African current events. Africa's news leader.

Image: Twitter: @GwedeMantashe1The African National Congress National Chairperson, Gwede Mantashe has lashed out at former leaders of the party who have been criticising its incumbent, Cyril Ramaphosa. Mantashe was speaking on the sidelines of the Letsema campaign in Carletonville, West of Gauteng.

“Any prior leadership who criticises their successors, to me are in the wrong, that’s my starting point. When you are in a leadership position, you don’t go public and criticise your successor or your predecessor because you have access to them,” says Mantashe.Mantashe also reacted to NEC member Lindiwe Sisulu’s calls for Ramaphosa to step aside while investigations are under way regarding the alleged theft of millions of US dollars from his Phala Phala farm two years ago.

“Ill-discipline, you don’t get it in the ANC. Your upbringing will determine your discipline and your level of discipline. Now if you miss something in that upbringing, you are going to commit mistakes politically, that is not necessary. My own view is that it is never necessary for you to insult a fellow leader in the open when you have an opportunity to talk to him face-to-face.

Also vying for the position are former President, Jacob Zuma; David Masondo, and current Limpopo Chairperson, Stan Mathabatha – who has been endorsed by KwaZulu-Natal. Mantashe says candidates must be assessed on the contributions that they can make to the party. Mantashe also condemned the killing of the ANC Deputy Chair of the Gert Sibande region, Muzi Manyathi, labelling it as a pure act of criminality and not political killing.

Is theft a 'political mistake'? There really is no mistake where Gwede is concerned, until he speaks as a paragon of ANC morality as he embarrasses himself even his Bosasa benefits were by choice, mogalewakanyane To be honest I just dont see any candidate in the current MYANC leadership who can fill this man shoes GwedeMantashe1 , let alone to deal with the challenge he has just alluded to
