Mashatile apologises to Khayelitsha man

ANC deputy president Paul Mashatile has apologised after his bodyguards manhandled a man at his Khayelitsha home. It took place during a door-to-door campaign in Cape Town today, ahead of the ANC's 113th anniversary celebrations this weekend. Mashatile's bodyguards were last year filmed assaulting motorists on the N1 highway in Johannesburg, and a number of them on trial for that matter. #Newzroom405's Juniour Khumalo has more details on what led to the commotion.

What else can you expect from the boss of a criminal cartel?

[thembisilenkosi]

If there was no media they were going to beat him and say he insulted them

[lorraineramagole]

They are lying ANC doesn't assist anyone unless you're one of theirs

[hgfku-tnhb]

Mashatile didn't help this family in building this house. This is not the first incident involving his security

[neommutle]

ANC, People are tired of you!! They have No manners, even for the young child the man was holding.

[peterkoning]

Apologies are not enough ! The guards should be fired and, or arrested

[hedleyfurio]

A rule of life is to conduct yourself so that you NEVER HAVE TO APOLOGISE - we are taught by 10 years old to think before we act, and have a total disregard for others - Disgraceful
