North West ANC produces Molefe's membership forms
Hartbeespoort – ANC leaders in Madibeng have produced two membership forms as proof that former Eskom chief Brian Molefe belongs to one of the region’s branches.
This was just hours before Tshwane secretary Paul Mojapelo told News24 that Molefe was a member of ward 65 [Irene], in good standing.
"He still belongs to a ward in Irene. The region knows nothing about a transfer," Mojapelo told News24.
Last week, Parliament released a statement announcing that Molefe was headed to the National Assembly following a nomination from the North West province, but just days after the announcement, some of the members from the branch at the centre of the storm said they did not know Molefe.
But the branch, regional and provincial leaders in the North West have come out to defend the decision.
