Tony Leon, Lindiwe Sisulu punted for ambassadorship
Cape Argus
|March 24, 2025
FORMER DA leader Tony Leon and former ANC MP Lindiwe Sisulu have informally entered the fray to become South A frica’s next ambassadors to the US following the recent expulsion of former ANC member, Ebrahim Rasool, who returned home yesterday.
DA federal chairperson, Hellen Zille, at the weekend tipped Leon to become the next US ambassador, while on Saturday, the Activists and Citizens Forum through its spokesperson, Dennis Bloem, nominated Sisulu as Rasool's replacement.
Early this month, Rasool was declared persona non grata by US Secretary of State Marco Rubio after he accused American President Donald Trump, and his administration of supremacism.
