ActionSA has suspended City of Tshwane councillor and Corporate and Shared Services MMC Kholofelo Morodi as a party member pending a preliminary investigation into Madlanga Commission allegations. Tshwane Mayor Nasiphi Moya earlier placed her on special leave after evidence allegedly showed her sharing internal land lease tender documents with police sergeant Fannie Nkosi. The moves aim to uphold transparency and accountability.

The party's National Working Committee rejected the request, as Mchunu has not been charged in any court. The ANC will monitor developments closely amid the ongoing Madlanga Commission of Inquiry.
