ANC slams violent KwaDukuza protests
Updated | By Sandile Zikhali
ANC members who protested in the KwaDukuza CBD recently say they regret the violent acts committed by some demonstrators.
Disgruntled members took to the streets, shutting down municipal offices and torching a car.
"We would like to send an apology to the community around KwaDukuza who were affected. We did not mean [for this to happen]."
They protested against a claim that murder convict, Musa Zondi was going to be reinstated.
Zondi is a former ANC regional secretary who was sentenced last year. He is appealing the outcome and is currently out on bail.
Dlamini says leaders with questionable backgrounds taint the credibility of the organisation.
