Democratic Alliance (DA) parliamentary leader Lindiwe Mazibuko took to social media to slam the party's communications head, Gavin Davis, reports The Sunday Independent.
According to the newspaper, this comes after the DA was reportedly exposed for attempting to intimidate the SA Institute of Race Relations into ending its #SAIRRknowyourANC campaign, which aimed to highlight achievements by the ANC.
Davis apparently asked Mazibuko to help in communicating the party's opposition to the institute's campaign.
Mazibuko responded by writing on her Facebook wall: "People who bully, bait and are aggressive and offensive in the name of the organisation [they] represent, must not send me e-mails asking me to go on Twitter and defend their actions. You are an Emotional Intelligence vacuum. Clean up your own mess. Yes, this is a subtweet. #PoliticalSA".
Mazibuko has reportedly refused to comment on the matter.
This is apparently not the first time internal DA issues have made it onto Facebook, says The Sunday Independent.
DA deputy chief whip in the Johannesburg council, Toni Molefe, is reportedly being investigated for comments made on the social media platform.
Molefe is apparently accused of victimising candidates who wanted to go to Parliament and the Gauteng legislature, and making this known through Facebook.
