ANCYL condemns killing of MKMVA member

Reading Time: < 1 minute

The ANC Youth League has condemned the killing of one of its members during a meeting in Mpumalanga’s Gert Sibande region.

A member of the MKMVA who was commissioned to provide security at the regional conference was shot and killed at the event on Saturday night.

He was apparently trying to defuse tensions when the incident occurred.

ANC secretary-general Ace Makgashule says the act is unacceptable.

“That is ill-discipline of the highest order for people to shoot each other in a conference of the ANC. We only heard this morning that somebody was killed or shot in Mpumalanga. We are going to address that matter; we need to get facts of what happened. And I have said generally we have condemned, killings are killings, there is no politics there and police must act as they have acted in some cases.”
