Information reaching Kossyderrickent has it that Naledi Chirwa pushed down from number 40 to 200 in EFF MP list in South Africa.
The Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) candidate list has been made public, and the current member of Parliament was demoted from 40 in the last national candidate list to 200 on this occasion—the bottom of the pile. This means it is unlikely she will keep her seat in Parliament.
Chirwa is also only 47 on the Gauteng candidate list.
This political benching is surely due to her skipping the Budget Speech in February (attendance is a parliamentary duty) and not providing a reason for her absence at the time. This led to a fine and resulted in her issuing a public apology on social media.
It was alleged they committed various breaches, including disregarding the authority of the chair, acting in a manner that was grossly disorderly, refusing to leave the Chamber when ordered to do so and they had to be physically removed from the chamber. The committee found all members guilty as charged,” said Ngaleka.
He said on Tambo, Ntlangwini and Mothusi Montwedi, the committee recommended that they should be suspended without pay for a month.
With regard to Chirwa, Babalwa Mathulelwa and Paulnita Marais, it was recommended that they be docked a month’s salary.
Other EFF members, Isaac Mafanya and Yoliswa Yako, will be docked half of their salaries.
