City of Johannesburg speaker Colleen Makhubele has drawn criticism for attending a Tshwane council meeting while she was on sick leave.Thabang Sefanyetso’sthere was a meeting in Johannesburg for which Makhubele submitted an apology and said she was sick. ActionSA Gauteng chair Funzi Ngobeni called for Makhubele to be investigated by the council ethics committee.“Makhubele was supposed to preside over the meeting of the City of Johannesburg this week but filed a leave of absence, citing ill-health.“ActionSA was baffled to see her taking part in the Tshwane council meeting, reportedly to address a disagreement within her own party, COPE, about a new councillor in the capital.
Former speaker and DA member Vasco da Gama also criticised Makhubele, claiming she found it “more interesting to be at a Tshwane council meeting than doing her job in Johannesburg”.“The speaker of Tshwane council requested me to urgently come to resolve the issue with the COPE councillor, as I am the contact person at the IEC for the province.
