ANC outraged after Ekurhuleni caucus leader Masina is dragged out ... (SowetanLIVE)

The ANC in Ekurhuleni has condemned the forced removal of its caucus leader Mzwandile Masina from council chambers on Thursday.

On Thursday, the ANC had issued a release that Masina would issue his own alternative state of the city address. When such a procedural matter was interrogated by our ANC caucus party leader, the incompetent speaker chose to suppress the enquiry and clearly ventured into suffocating the ANC caucus. ANC female supporters can be heard screaming and yelling at the security to stop.โ€” Nomazima Nkosi (@Zima_B_Nkosi) #EkurhuleniCouncil @SowetanLIVE pic.twitter.com/jHCgOgh2Ma March 31, 2022
