🗳️Former Msunduzi deputy mayor Mervyn Dirks returns to Parliament after a fallout with the ANC for calling for an investigation into the funding of ANC's internal elections💰 TheCitizenNews Catch up here⬇️

Former Msunduzi Municipality deputy mayor Mervyn Dirks has been thrust back into Parliament.

As a person who comes from this province, I have a clear understanding of the challenges faced by our people. In the National Assembly, I think I gave it my all — to the point where I felt that I had nothing to contribute, hence my decision to resign as an MP. According to Dirks’ complaint, Ramaphosa failed to pass on the information to law enforcement agencies as required by law.

At the time of Dirks’ resignation, the ANC parliamentary leadership had instituted disciplinary processes against him, leading to speculation that the Pietermaritzburg-based politician was put under pressure to vacate his National Assembly MP position.It was a voluntary decision, I felt that I was no longer adding any value to the national Parliament. Before I resigned, I held discussions with my ANC leadership here in KZN. So, it’s not true that I had problems with the ANC leadership.
