He said when the allegations surfaced, he was probed by the provincial (Eastern Cape) Integrity Commission and was eventually cleared.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe accusations relied on in the alleged letter to NEC officials and the Integrity Commission were widely reported and were responded to thoroughly in the organisation and in the public in 2019. In this regard, the ANC in the province is on record having clarified that the matter was heard by the Integrity Commission which cleared my name in any alleged wrongdoing.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cA report in this regard was submitted to the SGO which processed the report to the NEC which affirmed the decision of the Provincial Integrity Commission to clear my name in the alleged incidents of wrongdoing,\u201d Mabuyane told Independent Media.<\/p>\n<p>However, Netshivhumbe countered that by claiming that the provincial integrity commission did a shoddy work because it was beholden to Mabuyane, hence he escalated the matter to the national commission.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat PIC (provincial integrity commission) is compromised because it was appointed by a PEC (provincial executive committee) which is led by Mabuyane. The election of that PEC was declared by Sbu Ndebele as null and void,\u201d said Netshivhumbe.<\/p>\n<p>Moreover, he dismissed allegations that he was raising this matter as part of a bidding work on behalf of ANC\u2019s secretary-general, Ace Magashule, who has been asked by the national integrity commission to step aside pending his corruption charges.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt does not matter whether we support Magashule or not. We just want all the resolutions taken at Nasrec to be implemented. They must not label us when we point out their alleged crimes. They are not the saints they claim to be.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He claimed that the commission acknowledged receiving his letter and he expects it to work on the matter within seven working days.<\/p>\n<p>ANC\u2019s national spokesperson, Pule Mabe, did not respond when asked to corroborate Mabuyane\u2019s claims that the report clearing him was received by Luthuli House.<\/p>\n<p>Also failing to respond on time was Loyiso Magqashela, the spokesperson of the Eastern Cape ANC and PIC.<\/p>\n<p><b>Political Bureau<\/b><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; South-Africa.
