Bonginkosi Madikizela is South African politician. He is a former member of the African National Congress and later the United Democratic Movement and current MEC for Human Settlements in the Western Cape Provincial Parliament. ==Political Background== Madikizela, originally from the Eastern Cape had been a member of the ANC, and became prominent in 2005 when he led a group of disaffected ANC members in Makhaza, Khayelitsha who had been supportive of former Western Cape Premier, and ANC provincial chairman Ebrahim Rasool in his leadership battle with Mcebisi Skwatsha. After Skwatsha won the battle, Madikizela and some of Rasool's supporters in Khayelitsha claimed that they were marginalised, and later excluded as possible ANC candidates for the local government elections in 2006. In early 2006 Madikizela along with several other ANC members, including councillors, were expelled from the party after it became clear that they would contest local government elections as independent candidates. Although he was not elected as a councillor, Madikizela remained politically active, joining the UDM in 2007, and elected as Cape Town Metro regional secretary until a party investigation found that he had secretly recruited party members to join the DA. He was subsequently hired as a communication officer at the City of Cape Town, and later a spokesman in the office of then Cape Town mayor Helen Zille. In October 2008 he joined the DA and was subsequently appointed as Housing MEC by Helen Zille. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Bonginkosi Madikizela」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
