UDM leader in the province Thando Mpulu said there was only one option for Masualle‚ following the damning findings against Mbina-Mthembu – that being to show her the door.
“Only through the premier’s firm action by releasing [Mbina-Mthembu]‚ will we know whether or not the premier himself was complicit – because if he does not act‚ it would send a message that he was complicit‚” said Mpulu.
At the time of Mandela’s funeral‚ Masualle was an MEC at provincial treasury‚ with Mbina-Mthembu as his head of the department.
“The premier cannot wait for the SIU [Special Investigations Unit] proclamation‚ because the DG has long been underperforming in her role – therefore this just adds to our long-held view‚ that she is not fit for the job.”
