NATIONAL NEWS - Democratic Alliance (DA) leader Mmusi Maimane’s breakfast meeting with founding member of the DA, Tony Leon, rubbed the ANC election head Fikile Mbalula the wrong way, as he has dubbed Maimane a ‘sellout’ who celebrates heroes who enforced apartheid.
Tuesday morning kicked off to a spirited bout between Mbalula and Maimane after Mbalula initiated a head to head with Maimane after implying Maimane was headed in the wrong direction and there was no turning back for him.
The DA leader tweeted on Tuesday that he had breakfast with his friend, Leon, and spent the morning reflecting on history, the memory Leon’s father Ramon Leon and their legacies.
Maimane continued to say their contributions to the country were “immense” despite the treatment they received from the press and Mufamadi.
The message, however, caught the eyes of the ANC election head, who said: “There’s no turning back for you Pastor Dumelang Bagaetsho. wathengisa [you’re selling out] strong. You’re in it deep; you are now celebrating apartheid and rewriting his history.”
