The Democratic Alliance Deputy Chief Whip
Sandy Kalyan said the African National Congress Chief Whip Mathole Motshekga
must discipline ANC MPs for sexist comments.
This follows the comments made by ANC MP
John Jeffreys and Buti Manamela directed at DA Parliamentary Leader Lindiwe
Mazibuko.
Kalyan said that it lowers the decorum in
the house and it is unparliamentarily to refer to a member in terms of the way
they dress and off course the weight was one of the comments that was made negatively.
“I will be asking the ANC chief whip formally
to reign in his members and that these members should withdraw their comments because
they are unparliamentarily and it denigrates the decorum in the house,” added
Kalyan.
