If Guptas were white rich family there would be no noise: Mantashe

--:--
ANC Secretary General Gwede Mantashe says there would have no noise about the wealthy Gupta family's alleged relationship with President Jacob Zuma if they were a rich white family.

He was responding to a question from OFM News about the alleged influence the Guptas have on the ANC and government.

This despite Mantashe previously being quoted in the media as saying he was concerned about the relationship “some individuals have with this family” – which owns The New Age Newspaper and the television channel, ANN7.

Mantashe says he does not have a relationship with the Gupta family.

Mantashe attended the ANC's January 8 celebrations in Bloemfontein yesterday.
