ANC Chief Whip has resigned

Interesting one...

Germany isn't really a cadre-in-political-exile position, though. So not necessarily a 'punishment' for stepping out of line.

conflict of interest, given the poo his wife is in?
 
...being redeployed, apparently Ambassador to Germany....he does realise, that Nene is still waiting on his deployment , right?:D

Just what I was thinking. Redeployment means diddly in our politics. Nene is still doing garden leave from last heard on that.
 
Sparing the party blushes in the lead up to the elections?

Running away before an impeachment crisis?

Wanting to escape the pending Constitutional Court decision?

None of which really has anything to do with him as Whip, though?

Perhaps they're looking for a sacrificial lamb or some sorts...?

Chief whip responsible for enforcing discipline in the party, no?

Wife facing multiple fraud/money laundering/theft charges?

Discipline in parliament, yes. Is his wife an MP?

Otherwise I'm not seeing any COI.

They've never given a toss about MPs family members' shady dealings before.

It might be that they want him out of the spotlight in the run up to elections, because of his wife, yeah...
 
What conflict of interests?

She is alleged to have defrauded the department of education of more than R1.2 million between 2009 and 2010 when she worked as the Port Elizabeth district education coordinator of the early childhood development unit.

She is facing 16 counts of fraud and 15 of money laundering.

Fine upstanding citizens these ANC people are.
 
He seem's to be a zupta fanboy, so good riddance.
 
So how is his German?

Wish they'd appoint people based on whether they can do the job not their shady politics...
