Dow denounces Kgosi Mosadi’s Pan-African Parliament removal

Parliament removed Kgosi Mosadi yesterday from the committee and replaced her with Dow, something that the Specially Elected MP says is not supported by the law regulating election to the Pan-African Parliament and is therefore of no force or effect.

In a letter written to the Speaker of the National Assembly, Dow says she was not in Parliament when the issue was debated and put to a vote. “It was my understanding, at all material times, that Kgosi Mosadi had expressed a desire to be excused from continued service at the Pan-African Parliament. I have since ascertained that Kgosi Mosadi has not resigned from the Pan-African Parliament nor does she intend to do so. The position, therefore, is that no vacancy exists and thus none is available for filling,” she highlighted.
