DA to probe abuse of state funds as pro-Zuma faction hijacks KZN Legislature Women’s Parliament
10 August 2017
The Democratic Alliance in KwaZulu-Natal will conduct an investigation into the blatant abuse of taxpayers’ money at a KZN Legislature Women’s Parliament yesterday after the event was turned into an NDZ17 campaign launch for ANC presidential candidate, Nkosazana Dlamini-Zuma.
The event, which was supposed to be non-partisan and in celebration of women was instead hijacked by the ANC and turned into an election spectacle with banners and photos of Dlamini-Zuma on display. This in clear view of Premier Willies Mchunu and senior ANC members of the legislature.
The DA is not shocked by yesterday’s events. This type of misuse of power and state funds for ANC party related jamborees has become the norm.
