“I say this because democratic processes of the ANC are rigged to favour other candidates and people are purged because of the assumption that we have been here during the era of former premier Ace Magashule.”
Mohapi’s supporters, who live in his street which is one away from Liphoko, defended their candidate as the legitimate candidate, saying Liphoko was a criminal who had failed while given the chance.
They brushed off accusations that the ANC bused in people from elsewhere to camouflage Mohapi’s lack of community support. Said one of the supporters who asked not to be named: “The reality is that Ntate Liphoko did not serve us well. He has been serving this whole term and failed us. He was so arrogant that if a community member went to his house seeking help he would shut the gate in your face and tell you to make an appointment — though we elected him.
“There was no purging, this guy is bad news and an outlaw. First he has a pending case of domestic violence, then he has a five-year suspended sentence for promoting illegal land invasion and is suspected of having a hand the shooting of an ANC community organiser which is the reason President Ramaphosa came here.”He will be back in Gauteng on Tuesday at the Alberton Civic Centre to address the launch of the ANC elections event.
