COMRADE VAVI SHOULD PROVE HIS ALLEGATIONS OF CORRUPTION WITHIN THE ANC
The African National Congress (ANC) has noted repeated allegations of
corruption raised by the Congress of South African Trade Unions Secretary
General, Cde Zwelinzima Vavi.
Cde Vavi speaks with conviction that “there is a tiny minority in the ANC
leadership and membership which is corrupt and who use the ANC to enrich
themselves”.
To this end, Cde Vavi has not raised this matter with the ANC in any of the
fora of engagements we have and he has not provided any evidence of such
allegations.
As a leader of the Alliance, we would have expected of him to have brought such
a matter to the ANC leadership or even presented the list of such corrupt
individuals. Together, we would have walk and matched to the nearest police
station to ensure that such individuals are arrested. Cde Vavi would have
assisted the ANC and government to root out the scourge of corruption in the
country.
Cde Vavi’s failure to bring this weighty matter to the attention of the ANC and
even his failure to report this matter to the law enforcement authorities,
amounts to an insult to the standing and image of the ANC, its leadership and
membership. These omissions on his part cannot amount to a fight against
corruption but is reminiscent of grand standing.
