I'm not sure just removing content, and claiming that it/it's addition is "malicious" is appropriate. At least not without sources. Boomer VialHappy Holidays!Contribs 01:06, 12 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the message - there was a user Fenna007 (now does not exist) on the page who added all the content I removed to the 'Controversies' section. I believe this to be an act of vandalism on the page - as they were citing compromised sources of information such as the WMC Leaks site which is a known propaganda tool and creator of fake news for the opposition within the ANC. Exposure of WMC Leaks site Second reference to unsuitable info on WMC leaks site WMC Leaks Screengrabs were quickly taken after the update and circulated on Twitter before they were taken down - where I discovered them. It would appear that the vandals are using Twitter to legitimise the perceived controversy by the opposition. I'd expect more of this to happen over the coming days/weeks as the ANC has its conference.
