Former police minister Fikile Mbalula has resigned as a member of Parliament‚ the ANC said on Friday.
Jackson Mthembu‚ the ANC's chief whip in Parliament‚ said the resignation was effective from February 26. Mbalula was a fierce supporter of former president Jacob Zuma and openly backed Nkosazana Dlamini-Zuma to take over from Zuma as ANC president in December. A recent cabinet reshuffle saw Mbalula being removed from his position as police minister, which he had occupied that position for less than a year‚ but managed to court a fair amount of controversy with his tough-talking manner and outspokenness on social media.
I cannot say this was not expected from Mbalula as he clearly showed that he did not support Ramaphosa and for him to resign makes sense in terms of showing that he does not support Ramaphosa.

ReplyDeleteThis shows that the relationship between politicians is not politically, but friendly. They care less about improving the nation in all aspects.
ReplyDeleteIt was also a very inappropriate move select the minister of sport to become the minister of the SAP
He was a good guy, how can he do such thing? it seems like he doesn't care about our country.
