NATIONAL NEWS - The African National Congress (ANC) in Gauteng has criticised what it says are continued public spats involving party members saying factions are now at a 'tipping point'.
The ANC Youth League and Women's League have both called on President Jacob Zuma to redeploy Finance Minister Pravin Gordhan as he prepares to deliver his budget on Wednesday.
More divisions in the party surfaced at the weekend after it was announced that former Eskom boss Brian Molefe would this week be sworn in as Member of Parliament.
The ANC chief whip in Gauteng, Brian Hlongwa, says, “The people have spoken. The people have expressed through elections their displeasure about issues of unity, factionalism and what is seen as arrogance of power, and if we continue down that path we cannot claim to be a leader of society.”
