But at a press conference today, Rep. Yekeh, the opposition Alternative National Congress (ANC) lawmaker didn’t mince his words, accusing the VP of dirty politics in his district and for which threatening to expose the VP’s hiding secrets.
“I challenged you, VP Taylor, to organize another meeting again.”
Though the tough-talking lawmaker didn’t state during the press conference what the VP said during her meeting with Madam Davies at her residence, but said he will expose the VP if she organizes a similar meeting with Madam Davies again.
“I am not against the VP having a meeting with Madam Davies. I do not have a problem either with the Vice President endorsing my political opponent but if… then I will be pushed talk some nasty things…,” Rep Yekeh said.
He continued: “VP Taylor, District number 10 politics don’t get involved… I believe in dirty politics. I will have no regrets to drag you in the mud.”
