The ANC caucus in parliament says the reported disciplinary action of former Minister of Tourism Dereck Hanekom is being handled by the Luthuli House. The party has asked Hanekom to explain why he should n't be removed as the chairperson of it's national disciplinary committee. This, after Hanekom's comment on social media saying ANC MPS "must vote against state capture, massive looting and corruption" in the recent motion of no confidence in President Jacob Zuma. Outspoken ANC MP, Makhosi Khoza, Mondli Gungubele and Pravin Gordhan, have also openly expressed desire to use their conscience at the ballot box. Khoza has since been fired as chairperson of Parliament's Portfolio Committee on Public Service. The opposition says President Jacob Zuma is taking steps to punish Mps who voted against him.
