Marius Fransman, the former ANC Western Cape leader under investigation for sexual harassment allegations, is confident he’ll be back in office to steer the party in the lead-up to the August 3 local elections.



The ANC’s integrity committee was due to decide this weekend whether Fransman should take back the provincial leadership from acting chairman Khaya Magaxa.



Zizi Kodwa, the party’s national spokesman, is still quiet on the matter but on Saturday night, Fransman said he expected the case against him to be dropped.



Fransman told Weekend Argus he was confident the ANC’s national leadership would support his return. “I have full confidence in the national executive to correct this travesty of justice.



“I hope this saga can soon be over so that I can assess, as the elected provincial leader, the damages caused by this faction in the province.”



A police investigation into the harassment charges is also under way.
