Pravin an honest man - Mthembu
11 October 2016
Cape Town – ANC chief whip Jackson Mthembu is convinced that Finance Minister Pravin Gordhan is "an honest man," and a wonderful minister.
Briefing media on Tuesday, Mthembu said the ANC in Parliament stood by the party’s call for Gordhan to co-operate fully with the investigation.
"I have a lot of respect for comrade PG [Pravin Gordhan]. It does not take away the respect and integrity of comrade PG, from where I stand. I’m convinced he is an honest man. Of course, let’s allow the law to take its course," Mthembu said.
This follows news that Gordhan has been served a formal summons, believed to be for fraud.
