EFF threatens consequences for mayor

The Economic Freedom Fighters failed to stand against corruption when they walked out of the Tshwane council sitting when a report was tabled to issue a notice to suspend city manager Moeketsi Mosola, according to mayor Solly Msimanga.

Mosola, who was issued a notice of intention to suspend him yesterday, was allegedly involved in irregularly appointing engineering consulting company GladAfrica to oversee the city's projects.

While the council was deliberating, the EFF’s national deputy leader Floyd Shivambu took to Twitter, accusing Msimanga of being micromanaged by “the white minority”. He threatened consequences for Msimanga protecting whites.

“The mayor is micromanaged by the white minority cabal, which imposes underqualified and overpaid administrators in senior management positions. When exposed by the black management, they go for purging. There will be consequences for protecting white entitlement,” said Shivambu in his tweet.
