ANC relieves Obed Bapela of his duties after Morocco trip

The ANC has relieved the Deputy Chair of the party's NEC sub-committee on International Relations, Obed Bapela of his duties.
It follows media reports that Bapela supposedly led a delegation to Morocco where he allegedly misrepresented the party.
In a statement, the ANC said Bapela failed to give a full account of why the meeting was held.
SABC News International Editor Sophie Mokoena weighs more on this.

The ANC should initiate disciplinary actions against this roque member and, if found guilty, expel him from the ANC just as they have correctly done with Jakob Zuma & Ace Magashule.

That Bapela is the reason why North west province is turmoil and lack leadership.He convened his faction within ANC to remove Supra mahumapelo from office as premier.Very opportunistic factional fellow.

The man went to Morocco for his personal business ambitions. But he went about it the wrong way. He tried using his political links. 🤷‍♂️
