The United Democratic Movement has welcomed
the resignation by the Independent Electoral Commission Chairperson Advocate
Pansy Tlakula.
President Jacob Zuma received a letter of resignation
from Tlakula on Tuesday. She was taken
to court by five political parties after they accused her that her integrity
had been comprised.
UDM President Bantu Holomisa said she
wasted everybody’s time and in the process cost the IEC’s s lot of money which
was used to pay her legal cost.
“We however call upon the commission to
begin to implement fully the findings of the Public Protector which fingered
some officials who used work with Pansy Tlakula.
We feel strongly as well that we need to replace
Pansy Tlakula as soon as possible and that Parliament must speed up that
process.” Holomisa said.
