Former president Thabo Mbeki has denied rumors that he collaborated with ex-spy Arthur Fraser to expose the Phala Phala farm theft scandal.
On Wednesday, EFF leader Julius Malema claimed that Mbeki conspired with Fraser in an attempt to become ANC president again.
However, the former president rejected Malema’s claims.
In a statement on Twitter, the Thabo Mbeki Foundation said the former president believed it was from the apartheid’s old intelligence machinery.
It goes on to say that these claims are aimed at strengthening the divisions in the ANC and weakening efforts to revive the party.
