Vavi’s reaction follows Gwamanda’s arrest on Friday pending an alleged warrant of arrest issued for him in May. He should be in the Mayor's office first thing in the morning to submit his resignation or at least to step aside while battling fraud charges“Wow – uncle Vavi, you have become the epitome of high moral. You can now call when who should resign. Wow, sir,” said Abenathi @SerkieG.
