The departure of Minister Nobuhle Nkabane, after lying to Parliament to cover up ANC cadre deployment, comes after relentless DA pressure in the fight against ANC corruption, wrongdoing and criminality.

The Democratic Alliance’s commitment to rescue South Africa means that while we govern to deliver in every way we can, we also fight vigorously to take down corruption, in every way possible.

This is a momentous moment for all South Africans. The mandate you have given the DA, gives us the ability to win these battles.

The DA will keep on fighting corruption and wrongdoing at every turn.

Seeing one ANC Minister depart Cabinet under storming clouds of lies, deceit, cadre deployment corruption and a Hawks Investigation is a first step to restoring our faith that the GNU will not tolerate corruption.

Our demand to President Ramaphosa was for him to take action against the seriously compromised, corrupt and nefarious in the ANC, and the firing of Nkabane is the first step for him.

One Nkabane does not a renewed ANC make. There is still a very long list of ANC corruption to be eradicated.
