This comes after he threatened to file criminal charges against the ANC Top Six on behalf of ANC staff for non-payment of salaries and UIF.
ANC spokesperson Pule Mabe says if Niehaus would like to speak to the party, he must do so through his lawyers.
Mabe says the party will not tolerate insubordination.
“If comrade Carl wants to meet with the ANC he will meet with us through his legal team. Where we are now he is dismissed in the employ of the ANC,” Mabe said.
“If he wants to appeal this he can exercise the normal routes. We must be seen to be taking action against descent whether it’s done by younger ones in the ANC or those who claim to be decorated freedom fighters, we must take action.
“If the ANC doesn’t take action against descent it will lose the respect of society.”
