Sources Say Magashule Approached Integrity Committee Before NEC

SOUTH AFRICA
MAGASHULE ANALYSIS
  • Local Political Analyst warns we may have a long road ahead before ANC SG Magashule will step aside.
  • Notes Magashule will have little time to prepare for the 12 Dec integrity commission hearing, but highlights that the committee has been ignored before in the past.
  • Sources say Magashule actually approached the Integrity Commission (IC) himself on 28 Nov, making the outcome seem to be largely on his terms which is concerning.
  • Inability of the NEC to force Magashule to step aside at the meeting shows the magnitude of the situation, power held by the SG and the political nature of the decision, rather than legal.
  • Once passed by the IC, the matter returns to the NEC.
  • Focus shifts to the IC process & panel which have yet to be decided - Daily Maverick
