Political career
[edit]Born on 4 January 1961,[1] Mudau began his career in the National Council of Provinces. Though not initially elected to his seat in the 1994 general election,[2] he joined the chamber during the legislative term.[3] In the next general election in 1999, he was elected to an ANC seat in the Mpumalanga Provincial Legislature,[1] where he served as ANC caucus chairperson.[4]
He left the legislature in early July 2001 as part of a reshuffle of the Mpumalanga ANC's legislative caucuses, viewed by media as part of a "purge" by Mpumalanga Premier Ndaweni Mahlangu.[4][5] Mudau and other critics of Mahlangu were transferred to the National Assembly, where he was sworn in on 3 July to replace Mabhuza Gininda.[5]
Mudau left Parliament after the 2004 general election. He later served as chairperson of the provincial operating licensing board in Mpumalanga;[6] he was appointed to a three-year term in that position in October 2005.[7]
