MAMPARA OF THE WEEK Kebby Maphatsoe

- Camo chameleon

Kebby Maphatsoe has admitted that he lost his arm after being shot by Ugandan soldiers while escaping from an ANC camp during the struggle. The man seems to have a continuous streak of cowardice. He was all fired up about the parliament­ary vote on setting up an inquiry into the fitness of public protector Busisiwe Mkhwebane to hold office. He even wrote a letter to his buddy, ANC secretaryg­eneral Ace Magashule, vowing he would never vote for a DA motion. All it took was a quick instructio­n from Gwede Mantashe for Kebby to toe the line and vote in favour of the motion. “You must understand that officials came. They said, ‘One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, and the meeting is closed.’ No point of clarity,” said Kebby the coward when asked why he never stuck to his conviction­s.
