Sunday publications has revealed that Chief operations officer in President Jacob Zuma’s office, Jessie Duarte has resigned.
This follows according to reports that contention among Zuma's most senior officials threaten to cripple the Presidency.
Reports further say Duarte informed ANC secretary-general Gwede Mantashe of her decision in an emotional e-mail on Thursday.
She cited, among other things, a smear campaign, rumour mongering and gossip as reasons for her decision.
Duarte will inform Zuma about her decision as soon the President who’s due to leave for UK tomorrow, is available.
Presidency spokesman Vusi Mona said they had not received any official resignation from Duarte.
The former journalist said that if the ANC's headquarters had received such notice, it would be best for them to comment.
