Patriotic Alliance (PA) Deputy President, Kenny Kunene<\/a>, says he expects to be reinstated as Johannesburg\u2019s MMC for Transport, after an independent investigation cleared him of any wrongdoing.<\/p>\n

The investigation was launched after Kunene was found at the Sandton residence of Katiso “KT” Molefe in July, when police arrived to arrest the controversial businessman. Molefe is accused of orchestrating the 2022 murder of popular musician Oupa “DJ Sumbody” Sefoka and two of his bodyguards.<\/p>\n

Kunene later explained that he was at Molefe\u2019s home to accompany a young journalist from his online news platform, Africa News Global, who was there to conduct an interview.<\/p>\n

Following the incident, Kunene was suspended by the Patriotic Alliance and subsequently resigned from his position as Johannesburg\u2019s MMC for Transport.<\/p>\n

Speaking to Ynews sister channel, eNCA, Kunene expressed confidence in the outcome of the investigation.<\/p>\n

“Three senior investigators interviewed me, witnesses I provided, as well as those they independently identified. I have no doubt that they were satisfied with the facts \u2014 which is why they cleared me. The fact that Molefe\u2019s side has not yet been heard doesn\u2019t concern me. He will respond when given the opportunity,” Kunene stated.<\/p>\n

In response to the developments, PA leader Gayton McKenzie has issued a stern ultimatum to the ANC, to reinstate Kunene within seven days warning that failure to do so will lead to the PA to withdraw from all its local government coalitions with the ANC across the country.<\/p>\n

X village made me understand this African Proverb in the PIC. What I appreciate is that dust gets blown away by the wind and I remain unscathed. My name is God ordained. I was born for God’s purpose, my life has been a journey of a Giant that God protect in Jesus name. Thank you\u2026 pic.twitter.com\/tMJwrW0YV5<\/a><\/p>\n
