DA accuses Mbete of backpedalling on Zuma no confidence motion

The Democratic Alliance has accused the Speaker of the National Assembly (NA)‚ Baleka Mbete‚ of backpedalling on the party’s Motion of No Confidence in President Jacob Zuma. The DA said it had noted with “serious concern” Mbete’s statement on Tuesday suggesting that the party’s Motion of No Confidence may not happen due to a “busy” parliamentary programme.
