Minister of Tourism and ANC National Executive Committee member, Lindiwe Sisulu, reveals how she was left dangling alone when she carried out the 2017 ANC Conference resolution to downgrade the Israeli Embassy to a liaison office.

Meanwhile, Sisulu is of the view that Eskom is a “real problem” as the country is under the kind of load shedding that it has never experienced before.“Well I don’t know if, in my position, I should be blaming anybody but I do agree that infrastructure is collapsing, everybody is concerned – I don’t know if the people who are there listening to us will take any of the things that we are saying because we have always convinced them we are looking into it,” says Sisulu.

“Eskom is a real problem. We are under the kind of load shedding we have never experienced before. We could go on and on but it would be like self-flagellation, hitting myself on my back for something that we should have done but I think that I can say that there are ways in which we can solve these matters,” she adds.The ANC NEC Member says that the step-aside resolution of the political party was taken opportunistically and not seen all the way through to its end.

The resolution dictates that those who face corruption or criminal charges should step aside voluntarily, but Sisulu has the following to say. “My view on it is that when we put the step aside resolution, I do not think we had seen it through to its end. I don’t think we had paid as much attention to it as we should have. Because we are now pre-judging a case that is before the courts and sentencing somebody for what we think is a wrongdoing and it only applies to certain people.

Shem hanged out to dry. She did not learn sadly. She must be hanged out to dry again

She is trying too much,using SABC to advance her political agenda.

A different “Dangle” awaits!!! Complicit Treason

LindiweSisuluSA is beautiful, I can date her.

LindiweSisuluSA ... you left the sa'ns dangling with water and sewerage problems when you were minister in that portfolio ...

LindiweSisuluSA Lindiwe, I do not think you have the right temperament to become a president. No harm in trying though.

Which begs the question, does a minister take instructions from a political party or parliament/cabinet caucus, surely any political party conference resolution must first formally be ratified and adopted by government before it becomes government policy...
