In a statement issued, the Congress of the People
says, South Africa has a president and a speaker of Parliament both of whom
lack credibility.
COPE spokesperson, Dennis Bloem says, together they
have ruined the image of politics and diminished the unique status of the
National Assembly.
He says Baleka Mbete, as National Assembly Speaker,
wilfully violated the holy principle of impartiality.
Bloem says “We can never accept that the speaker of
Parliament, Mbete must make that parliament a circus. It is totally wrong for
her to side to be a show one sided and give judgement whenever she thinks the
ANC must get the benefit. We are saying that Mbete must be removed as a speaker
and we are also demanding that secret ballot must take place.”
