Embattled former Western Cape legislature speaker Masizole Mnqasela has warned of more instability should the legislature go ahead and elect a new speaker. | MarvinCharles_

This after the House approved a motion brought by the ANC to elect a new speaker after the DA terminated his membership for making"disparaging remarks" about the party at a briefing.

"The interdictory relief our client seeks will also protect the interest of his staff members who were given one month's termination notice by the Secretary of Parliament.In any event, we disagree with your client's [the DA] motivation that the opposition party has left the party with no alternative but to nominate a candidate.Mnqasela is facing investigations by the Hawks, provincial legislature caucus, DA's Federal Legal Commission and DA caucus in the province.

Whistleblowers handed over a mountain of evidence to Western Cape Premier Alan Winde, revealing Mnqasela's travel and entertainment claims and apparent lavish spending while on official government business.
