Mantashe rubbishes Malema claim that Ramaphosa asked Zuma to resign
1 April 2016
Durban – ANC Secretary General Gwede Mantashe has denied claims made by EFF leader Julius Malema that Deputy President Cyril Ramaphosa asked President Jacob Zuma to resign, and that he had refused.
On Friday, Malema tweeted that the ANC would be convening a special NEC meeting next Saturday.
He also tweeted: "We are reliably told that the so called @MyANC officials asked Zuma to resign and he refused. Ramaphosa was the one leading the charge..."
Mantashe told News24 that this was not true.
