ANC veteran Tony Yengeni will be charged for negative comments he has made about the leadership of the party, secretary-general Fikile Mbalula announced yesterday.
Yengeni, who is Jacob Zuma's staunch supporter, has criticised Cyril Ramaphosa's ANC presidency, having previously called for him to step down.
In December, he made a comment on Ramaphosa's Phala Phala saga, saying: "Stashing millions of undeclared US dollars in your couches is not legal in SA."
Yengeni represented Zuma at his disciplinary hearing by the ANC, which resulted in Zuma's expulsion last year. He has repeatedly defended Zuma on social media, and also praised him.
In a media briefing yesterday to provide an update on the state of readiness for the party's 113th anniversary celebrations, Mbalula said Yengeni and other ANC members will be charged for their social media comments.

If the United States was so paranoid that China would be able to access so-called personal information from Americans through the social media platform, TikTok, why couldn't this suspected intelligence be used to solve cybercrimes and stop other potential threats, or was it just a matter of control and censoring?
