‘INTENTIONAL SABOTAGE’
The South African Communist Party has accused President Jacob Zuma of intentionally sabotaging the ANC-led alliance when he reshuffled its General Secretary Blade Nzimande.
Zuma made changes to his Cabinet in October, which saw Nzimande being axed as higher education minister.
Addressing a cadres' assembly in Witbank, Mpumalanga SACP Secretary Bonakele Majuba criticised the president's decision.
“That is why we’re saying instead of the general secretary being reshuffled, the person who reshuffled him, was to supposed to reshuffle himself.”
