NW ANC's interim provincial committee suspends Supra Mahumapelo
The IPC in a letter to Mahumapelo, which Eyewitness News has seen, informs him that he will go through a disciplinary process.
In a letter to NCOP chair Amos Masondo, which Eyewitness News has seen, Mahumpelo said he wanted to make representations in public to address a series of incidents before and after his removal.
Shady deployments, spying and questionable behaviour on the part of Premier Job Mokgoro has been detailed in a leaked 14-page complaint by the North West ANC's interim committee.
They have told Eyewitness News that the infighting between the internal provincial council and its detractors had intensified in the province ahead of the much-anticipated elective conference.
Supra Mahumapelo and four others successfully challenged their disbandment and subsequently won an enforcement order, but settled for a political solution, which saw an interim provincial committee being appointed.

Former North West premier Supra Mahumapelo is among hundreds of Zuma supporters gathered at OR Tambo International Airport waiting for the former statesman's arrival.
Last week, Mahumapelo said the ANC would never support a DA sponsored motion to remove the public protector from office.
ANC MP Supra Mahumapelo told Eyewitness News he didn't regret expressing the party’s support for Public Protector Busisiwe Mkhwebane in the face of growing calls for her removal.
On Sunday, the ANC slammed Mahumapelo for saying the party would never support the DA’s motion to remove Public Protector Busisiwe Mkhwebane from office.
The party has distanced itself from MP Supra Mahumapelo's assertion that the ANC supports Mkhwebane and would not back the motion to remove her from office.
During an address outside the Cape Town Magistrate's Court on Friday, Supra Mahumapelo claimed the ANC would never support the Democratic Alliance's motion to remove Mkhwebane from her position.
Former North West Premier Supra Mahumapelo made the allegations in Cape Town on Friday following the court appearance of fellow MP Bongani Bongo, who is facing corruption charges for allegedly bribing a parliamentary official during the Eskom inquiry in 2017.
Committee chairs elected on Tuesday include Bongani Bongo, Faith Muthambi, Mosebenzi Zwane and Sfiso Buthelezi, while former North West premier Supra Mahumapelo was elected to lead the tourism oversight committee.
He was one of nine African National Congress (ANC) chairperson nominees that the Democratic Alliance has called problematic.
A total of 33 oversight committees are scheduled to meet for the first time this week to elect chairs. The DA is opposing the ANC’s list of MPs to lead committees.
The North West post was the only one outstanding with the ruling party having decided on premiers for the other seven provinces it governs last week.
The party has finalised its list of candidates in the seven provinces it will govern but is yet to announce a name for the troubled North West province.
Supra Mahumapelo says any attempt to tarnish his name must be dealt with in public.
