ANC North West: Molefe is our member
The ANC Branch in Ward 29 has confirmed Brian Molefe's membership during a press briefing in Madibeng.
This comes amid claims Molefe is not a member- and therefore doesn’t qualify to be deployed to Parliament.
Branch chairperson Bethuel Mmutle says they are delighted that Molefe has been deployed to Parliament.
'Comrade Molefe has been a member in the Madibeng branch since 2011 and renewed his membership in 2015. For us it is a privilege to have someone from our branch serve in National Parliament' said Mmutle.
