Lack of salaries leave ANC staffers facing bleak Christmas
Last month, ANC general manager Febe Potgieter issued a letter to staff members informing them that there was a delay in payments, but that the money should be in their accounts on Wednesday.
ANC employees could spend the festive season in the financial doldrums after the party reneged on its promise to pay staff on 15 December.
Last month, ANC general manager Febe Potgieter issued a letter to staff members informing them that there was a delay in payments, but that the money should be in their accounts on Wednesday.
Suspended ANC staffer Carl Niehaus says the situation is disturbing.
“We keep getting empty promises from the ANC management, the last time the ANC paid its staff was in August this year, staffers have not been paid for September, October, November and now December. It’s five months of no payment and we are heading to Christmas Day.
“The ANC management has lost its integrity and credibility, no one any longer believes them. Staffers are now facing the dark tunnel of not being able to take care of their families as they face a black Christmas, this indicates a lack of care by the ANC for its employees.”
ANC spokesperson Pule Mabe was only willing to say that it is an internal matter and that the NEC is working to resolve the issue.
