Gauteng sport, arts and culture MEC Faith Mazibuko has a chequered history of outbursts that have landed her in trouble | kgmadisa
But this was not the first time the MEC had made reckless statements that have got her into trouble.
In 2014, her office had to pay an out-of-court settlement of R350,000 for telling a mother of newborn triplets to"close up" her legs.In a separate incident recorded in a video that emerged in 2015, Mazibuko was caught in a brawl with an unknown man which almost turned physical. It is not clear what the argument was about but the MEC could be seen in a video clip being held back from assaulting the man who she had backed into a corner.ANC provincial secretary Jacob Khawe said the party was disappointed with Mazibuko's latest utterances.
"We want, once more, to apologise to the white and the Indian community and say that the ANC is a nonsexist, nonracial organisation. We will submit comrade Faith before the integrity committee for due processing in the ANC," Khawe said.The league said it accepted her apology unreservedly but urged officials in government to try their best in ensuring service delivery schedules are adhered to.
The league said Mazibuko's frustration with slower rate of delivery was felt by the poorest communities.
