ANC secretary-general, Ace Magashule
ANC secretary General Ace Magashule has to step aside pending the outcome of his fraud and corruption case, or be suspended.
This was the recommendation made by the ruling party’s integrity commission.
News24 reports that in its three page report to the ANC National Executive Committee, the commission says the party’s conference decision must be applied without fear or favour.
According to the report, Magashule has indicated that he would abide by the decisions of the NEC, but should this not happen the NEC should consider suspending him in line with the party’s constitution.
It is up to the NEC to decide how to act on this report.
