Mokonyane has been implicated in allegations of state capture by Angelo Agrizzi, former COO of African Global Operations, formerly Bosasa.
Her new position will involve overseeing National Assembly committees, approving trips and presiding over plenary sessions of the assembly.
The appointment resulted in Mokonyane jumping straight to the Twitter trends list.
Nomvula Mokonyane is implicated in Bosasa state capture and yet the ANC NEC reward her with chair of chairs position🤨. This new dawn of Silili is a big. Any recommendation that will be made from Zondo Commission will not be implemented, I tell you🤞🏿
