ANC turns on Tolashe, instructs her to resign as ANCWL president and MP

The ANC has instructed Sisi Tolashe to step down as Member of Parliament and as the ANC Women’s League (ANCWL) president.

ANC has moved against ANC Women’s League president Sisisi Tolashe, instructing her to resign as both an MP and ANCWL president after the party’s integrity commission found her guilty of misconduct in public office.

This was confirmed by senior party insiders to IOL, who said this was discussed over the national executive committee (NEC) meeting over the weekend.

Behind closed doors, however, the sources described an atmosphere of fury, frustration, and political exhaustion.

“The organisation reached a point where it could no longer defend the indefensible,” said a senior ANC source familiar with the NEC discussions.
