A deputy po­lit­i­cal leader of the Hon­esty, Op­por­tu­ni­ty, Per­for­mance and Em­pow­er­ment (HOPE) par­ty has re­signed fol­low­ing a con­tentious joint meet­ing with the Com­mu­ni­ty Ref­or­ma­tion Net­work (CRM) NGO and the Na­tion­al Trans­for­ma­tion Al­liance (NTA).

Last Wednes­day, the three groups met, but Karen Nunez-Tesheira abrupt­ly left, vis­i­bly up­set.

She lat­er con­firmed that she had been sched­uled to speak on the state of the econ­o­my but de­clined to elab­o­rate on what led to her de­par­ture.
