This was after Niehaus issued a statement in which he said ANC employees would be laying criminal charges against “ANC national office bearers and member of the party’s national executive committee, for the continued non-payment of salaries”. The ANC’s Pule Mabe told eNCA that the ANC was “tired of always having to find itself having to deal with matters instigated by Niehaus”.
Having been suspended just over 2 months ago as an ANC member, Carl Niehaus has now been fired as a Luthuli House employee.
