Former ANC North West chairperson and premier Supra Mahumapelo has been suspended from the party for five years for sowing division. Mahumapelo, a key ally of former president Jacob Zuma and ANC secretary general Ace Magashule, was suspended on Wednesday by the provincial disciplinary committee (PDC).
Mahumapelo was last week temporarily suspended by the interim provincial committee (IPC) running the ANC in the province, pending the outcome of the disciplinary process.
