An adjournment on Friday of the crucial ANC national executive committee (NEC) meeting meant to discuss the divisive Phala Phala scandal report has been described as a waste of time.
Treasurer General and acting Secretary General, Paul Mashatile talks to journalists after the emergency ANC NEC meeting, 02 December 2022, at Nasrec expo centre in Johannesburg.The adjournment on Friday of the crucial ANC national executive committee meeting meant to discuss the divisive Phala Phala scandal report has been described as a waste of time.
Ramaphosa was expected to be grilled on the outcome of an independent panel report that found he may have committed a serious violation of the law. He said it was only when they arrived that they realised crucial preliminary processes laying the foundation for the meeting had been disregarded. The firebrand provincial leader said the postponement was particularly unfortunate as the Phala Phala scandal continues to plunge the country into uncertainty.
Another NEC member and youth league leader, Joy Maimela, said the decision by the party’s top six leaders to advise Ramaphosa against attending the meeting was misguided.
