Court orders ANC to reinstate member on Limpopo NCOP list
22 May 2019
The Gauteng High Court in Johannesburg has ordered the ANC to reinstate a member to its list of those heading to the the National Council of Provinces.
The ANC was also ordered to settle the applicant's legal bills.
Judge Leoni Windell ruled on Wednesday that the ANC had failed to honour the confidential settlement it had reached with Ponani Makhubele, 39, last month.
Makhubele asked Luthuli House for clarity after her name was mysteriously removed from the party's list to Parliament. Following discussions between party leaders, it was agreed that Makhubele's name would be number one on the list heading to the NCOP.
