The NEC resolved to implement the party’s 2017 Nasrec conference resolution. While the list will be finalised today, these are some of ANC’s bigwigs facing the reality of being forced to step aside: Ace Magashule Magashule is among several ANC leaders affected by the resolution. He faces 21 charges of fraud and corruption related to his tenure as Free State premier over a R250 million Free State asbestos contract. The ANC secretary-general said he would use the 30-day period to consult with former party leaders, including former presidents Jacob Zuma and Thabo Mbeki. Zandile Gumede eThekwini mayor, Zandile Gumede and 21 others – including city manager Sipho Nzuza, ANC councillor Mondli Mthembu – face more than 2,000 counts of fraud, corruption and money laundering linked to an eThekwini municipality contract amounting to R430 million.
