Khoza hits back at claims that she 'insulted' ANC colleagues
21 August 2017
Cape Town - African National Congress MP Makhosi Khoza has denied she insulted ANC colleagues following a boycott of a meeting she chaired last week, saying she was responding to their initial taunts.
Khoza was sacked as chairperson of the portfolio committee on public service and administration last Thursday, August 17, after ANC MPs wrote a letter demanding she be removed two days earlier.
Five ANC MPs boycotted a portfolio committee meeting on Tuesday, where Minister Faith Muthambi also didn't pitch up to account for alleged misuse of funds.
ANC chief whip Jackson Mthembu on August 18 claimed Khoza had insulted some of her colleagues in their WhatsApp study group after the meeting, to the point that they no longer wanted to work with her.
