ANC branches in the Buffalo City Metro's Dr WB Rubusana region want BCM mayor Xola Pakati on the national executive committee, the party's highest decision-making body, after December's national elective conference.
Deputy president David Mabuza has thrown down the gauntlet, making himself available to contest for the ANC presidency in December should he be nominated by the branches.
The Makhanda high court on Tuesday struck off the roll an urgent application by ANC members who wanted the court to nullify the party’s Alfred Nzo conference. In court papers, seen by DispatchLIVE (http://www.dispatchlive.co.za), the dissatisfied members, believed to be aligned to premier and provincial task team (PTT) convener Oscar Mabuyane, alleged that there were irregularities in the build-up to the conference and the conference itself.
An economist with at least 10 years of experience in top positions in the ANC or a businessman with a town planner background who is passionate about economic transformation in the Eastern Cape.
While Oscar Mabuyane has rejected claims that he is losing support to control the ANC in the Eastern Cape ahead of the party’s provincial elective conference, main rival Babalo Madikizela has questioned the abrupt postponement of the event.
