Listen to the Daily News Wrap, Wednesday 16 December
This is the Daily News Wrap from thesouthafrican.com bringing you all the news you really need to know on 16 December 2020.
Our top story today … the flip-flopping from the ANC Integrity Commission on Tuesday has concluded with Ace Magashule getting a reprieve. It was reported earlier yesterday that the panel had moved to force the Secretary-General into ‘stepping aside’.
However, that information was leaked from a highly sensitive document – and did not reflect the party’s final decision.
ANC spokesperson Pule Mabe confirmed that Magashule would remain as the SG ‘until the NEC has completed a full process’ of reviewing the recommendations.
Mabe did not deny that the Integrity Commission has resolved to make the party stalwart remove himself from the ANC Top 6 – but as it stands, that decision has not yet been actioned.
