Lesotho: ABC Infighting to Blame for Collapse of Govt - Moleleki

ABC officials have accused Mr Moleleki of influencing Mr Thabane to illegally prorogue parliament from 20 March to 19 June 2020- a move which was nullified last month by the Constitutional Court after a petition by the ABC, DC and other parties.

But in his Monday press conference at the AD offices in Maseru, Mr Moleleki said the ABC should look within and stop blaming him and his party for the collapse of the government.

He also pleaded for Mr Thabane to be allowed to remain in office up to July 2020 when he would retire with "grace, dignity and security" as per the various stakeholders' agreement during talks with South African special envoy, Jeff Radebe, last month.

When it was put to him that his real reasons for pushing for Mr Thabane to remain in office until July were probably to ensure that the government only collapsed when he would be eligible for his terminal benefits, Mr Moleleki denied having such selfish motives.
