'You will give respect to my womanhood,' says ANCYL member allegedly barred from lekgotla over knee-high dress
20 January 2020
ANC Youth League (ANCYL) spokesperson Sizophila Mkhize says she will not be bullied after she was allegedly barred from entering the ANC NEC lekgotla on Sunday because her dress was too short.
In a Facebook post, Mkhize said she was stopped at the door by a staffer from the secretary-general's office who told her: "Old people are complaining about such a dress code."
Donning the traditional ANC yellow and green, Mkhize posted a picture of herself in a knee-high dress.
She said another woman in the Presidency was then called to explain why she could not wear it.
