ANC rejects Lekota allegations that President Ramaphosa was a 'sellout'
14 February 2019
The ANC has rejected Mosiuoa Lekota's claims that President Cyril Ramaphosa was a "sellout".
"The ANC has full confidence in President Ramaphosa, and we do not take kindly to desperate attempts to call to question his integrity.
"Allegations of this nature are often made when the accuser fears exposure for his own misdeeds or runs out of political ideas," acting national spokesperson Zizi Kodwa said in a statement on Thursday.
This comes after the Cope leader said that Ramaphosa sold out student activists to the apartheid police special branch in the 1970s during the State of the Nation (SONA) debate on Wednesday.
