Barely a month after recovering from Covid-19, a senior ANC KwaZulu-Natal leader is in hot water after she was seen in a video allegedly distributing alcohol.
“We have not met to discuss it, but we will raise it in a meeting tomorrow with provincial officials. We were disappointed when we saw it,” Mthethwa said.
“This video was not taken with my permission. What's happening is that I am moving from a house within the yard and taking out food for my sisters,” she said.Sources told TimesLIVE the video was taken in Mtubatuba, kwaMsane, north of KwaZulu-Natal, on August 1. “She was evidently seen distributing alcohol in a video that has been shared on social media platforms, but this substance was again banned during the pandemic,” said the party member.
Nearly three weeks ago, President Cyril Ramaphosa announced the sale and distribution of alcohol was again temporarily banned as a result of alcohol-related incidents filling hospitals struggling to cope with Covid-19 cases.
