Ekurhuleni mayor Mzwandile Masina has apparently backtracked on his threats to quit his job after being 'convinced' by top ANC regional leadership on Tuesday.
He went on a tirade on Twitter, saying he feared nothing after a party statement called him to order for supporting Malema’s views to"let the white economy collapse".
"I fear nothing, if I'm isolated for radical views," Masina tweeted. “There is no way my ANC views can be misunderstood in my organisation. I stand firm on the nationalisation of commanding heights.He said if removed, he would not ask why.
