African National Congress
has threatened to take Tshwane Speaker Katlego Mathebe to court after she dismissed the party’s request in council that the acting speaker’s appointment be rescinded. Mathebe ruled that the ANC did not follow the proper rules and procedures and therefore, she could not allow their request to be debated in council.Deputy Chief Whip for theMpho Mehlape-Zimu says it seems the ANC is trying to remove Mathebe and the Acting Speaker by any means necessary to obtain power in the capital.
“History has taught us since December, it seems now our colleagues are trying to use any means necessary to remove the Speaker from office; any means except the correct means. What we are basically saying and the Speaker has said is that follow proper procedure. What they have been doing is, they read sentence one and jump sentence two and read parts of sentence three, now it makes sense to them but if you read it in totality it has a totally different meaning.
It's clear these leaders don't have their constituents at heart, it's about them,their wants because if it wasn't so,there were going to work hand in hand with one goal,that is the upliftment of the poor, unfortunately it's about their needs
When will this power struggle and greed ever stop,that moment people who voted for them are struggling to get services,all they do is dragging each other to court using taxes for frivolous lawsuits,Aargh
