The spokesperson of the ANC’s parliamentary caucus, Moloto Mothapo, is stepping down after working in Parliament for 12 years.

Mothapo will resign from his position effective February 14, according to a statement by the ANC in Parliament.

The party’s chief whip, Jackson Mthembu, thanked Mothapo for his "invaluable" service to the caucus.

Mothapo said he was privileged to have witnessed memorable political events during his time in Parliament.

"The reasons are more about professional decisions and personal ambitions," he said. "I have been in this job for 12 long years and I have gotten to a place and to a point where I feel I have done what I have been requested to do." He said he would keep a lid on his plans for the immediate future," he said.
