DA terminates former Tshwane councillor's membership for leaking info to EFF
29 January 2020
The DA's federal executive has upheld its federal legal commission's decision to boot out Gauteng MPL NkeleMolapo for leaking information to EFF leader Julius Malema.
Molapo, who was charged during her stint as a councillor in Tshwane, is accused of sending Malema a screenshot of an internal caucus discussion about a council sitting that was expected to discuss then-controversial city manager MoeketsiMosola in 2018.
The DA's federal council chairperson, Helen Zille, confirmed to News24 the recommendation to terminate Molapo's membership by the commission was upheld by the federal executive at the weekend.
"Her membership was terminated for sending DA strategy directly to Julius Malema," said Zille.
