The regional task team (Rtt) overseeing the affairs of the ANC eThekwini region has finally bowed to pressure to remove former eThekwini mayor, Zandile Gumede from party activities until she has cleared her name in court.

Gumede, a former mayor of eThekwini and her long time loyalist, Mondli Mthembu who is a senior ANC councillor in eThekwini are accused of corruption emanating from a R430 million waste tender issued by municipality in 2017.

A Gumede loyalist alleged that the decision was unfairly implemented as some accused party members are still taking part in internal party activities. However, their concerns were dismissed by Mluleki Ndobe, the Pec appointed coordinator of the regional task team. Ndobe said the decision to remove Gumede from the Whatsapp where matters like preparing for an elective regional conference and day to day regional party affairs are discussed was guided by the provincial secretary, Mdumiseni Ntuli.
