Former Sports, Arts and Culture Minister Zizi Kodwa has resigned as a Member of Parliament.
ANC Secretary General Fikile Mbalula confirmed that he has received a letter from Kodwa formally resigning as an MP.
“The secretary-general of the ANC, comrade Fikile Mbalula, has received a letter from comrade Zizi Kodwa formally communicating his resignation as a member of parliament. The resignation is with immediate effect,” said ANC acting national spokesperson Zuko Godlimpi on Thursday.
This is Kodwa’s second resignation in a year, as he resigned as the minister for the Department of Sports, Culture and Arts due to his involvement in corruption which landed him in court.
Shortly after that he was appointed a member of parliament which caused a stir among people.
He shouldn’t have even been nominated or accepted the nomination in the first place. Not rocket science unless this step aside rule is selectively enforced
