'ANC supporters threatened me'

2008-11-24 09:09

Johannesburg - Members of the newly formed Congress of the People (Cope) said their meeting was disrupted by ANC supporters on Sunday in Alexandra, the SABC reported.

Cope convenor in Alexandra Mzonke Mayekiso said they were preparing for the meeting when they were confronted by a group of ANC supporters -bearing ANC T-shirts - who insulted party leaders, vandalised his car and threatened his life, the broadcaster said.

"They were wearing ANC T-shirts and these are my former comrades...I know all of them," said Mayekiso, adding that police intervened and the meeting continued despite the protest.

Earlier, ANC president Jacob Zuma called for members not to disrupt Cope meetings after a number of similar reported incidences in various provinces.
