The African Christian Democratic party says it is not happy about the way Mbeki has been pushed out by supporters of the Zuma faction.

The party says it believes that Mbeki should have been given a chance to present his case particularly after he denied interfering with the National Prosecuting Authority.

ACDP leader Rev Kenneth Moshoeshoe says Mbeki made a huge mistake by not speaking to his party the African National Congress because he had all the warning signs that he was gone be moved.

Moshoeshoe added that he ignored what people were saying instead he travelled to Zimbabwe and he did not communicate with his party until it was too late and already a decision had been taken.

‘Mbeki should have spoken to the nation as the man I watched on Sunday, as man of reconciliation and a man who wanted this country to go forward.”
