The ANC in Mpumalanga is worried about the negative impact the arrest of its provincial executive committee (PEC) member and MEC Mandla Msibi will have in the upcoming local government elections.
Msibi, a strong political figure in Mpumalanga, was arrested this week on allegations of murder and attempted murder. It is alleged that Msibi was involved in an elections list scuffle that led to a shoot-out in Mbombela in August.
Msibi was also the elections manager in the province, meaning he was not only the face of electioneering but also an organiser.
