“He lied blatantly” - Makhubele on Lekota and being axed from COPE

Loading player...
Former City of Joburg speaker Colleen Makhubele says her axing from COPE was disingenuous, and blamed party president Mosiuoa Lekota for "lying" about her. 

COPE terminated Makhubele's membership on Monday after she joined the South African Rainbow Alliance (Sara), an alliance of smaller parties who seek to jointly contest next year’s elections.

She said Lekota "blatantly lied" about her involvement and the party’s involvement in Sara, including his own. 

Makhubele was speaking to ENCA reporter Thami Ngubeni on Wednesday.
