No confidence vote: Email Baleka Mbete

Cape Town - A Parliamentary debate on a motion of no confidence in President Jacob Zuma is set to be held on August 8.

Last month, the Constitutional Court ruled that National Assembly Speaker Baleka Mbete has the power to decide on whether the vote can be secret. She has yet to make her decision. 

Last month, News24 and Open Up provided a tool for citizens to email an MP to ask them to vote in one way or another. More than 7100 people sent emails.

Using the tool below, you can send an email to Mbete indicating whether you think she should declare the vote secret or open.
