Suspended former chairperson of the ANC in the North West Supra Mahumapelo has called on the party to suspend the application of its “step-aside” resolution until its next national conference.
Mahumapelo argued that aspects of the resolution are unlawful and the ANC would lose if it were to be challenged in court.
“My own view is that parts of that resolution which are in conflict with the law must be suspended until we go to the next national conference,” he said on Sunday.
He was addressing ANC branches in Delareyville, North West just days after the interim provincial structure that runs the affairs of the party in the province suspended his ANC membership.
