Carl Niehaus never attend programmes of the ANC, claims Mabe
The African National Congress (ANC) has confirmed that suspended ANC member Carl Niehaus has now been dismissed as a Luthuli House staffer.
The controversial former spokesperson’s axing followed a statement inviting the media to witness a criminal complaint being laid against the ANC at Johannesburg Police Station.
He wanted to lay a criminal complaint over the non-payment of salaries and charges of theft, corruption and fraud.
Speaking to SABC News on Thursday, the party’s spokesperson Pule Mabe said Niehaus does not even attend official programmes of the ANC.
“We see Carl Niehaus more on television and on social media and hear him across other mass media platforms. We rarely see him attending official programmes of the ANC.
"Comrade Carl has never been in a programme that the president of the ANC has been out doing outreaches or any other national official of the ANC.
“Now what he does is that he wants to propel and drive a narrative that will undermine the unity and renewal programme that the ANC embarked on and we are not going to wait we are going to discipline anyone that put the organisation in disrepute.
“If he believes the decision we have taken is wrong he can feel free to approach any court in the land, for now, he stays dismissed,” said Mabe.
Niehaus has been informed to fetch his belongings from the ANC security at Luthuli House on Friday between 10:00 and 11:00.
