ANC KwaZulu-Natal chair Sihle Zikalala and his provincial executive are trying to quell a brewing revolt against President Cyril Ramaphosa.
However, the president's detractors in the province remain defiant, and have vowed to ignore Zikalala's plea.
Insiders told the Sunday Times the meeting turned into a screaming match, with Gumede's supporters accusing Zikalala, in absentia, of being a"bully" for"imposing" his views on the NGC agenda. ANC Youth League provincial chair Kwazi Mshengu, who is convenor of the eThekwini interim regional leadership, denied that the matter came up but echoed Zikalala's statement.
ANC insiders in the PEC told the Sunday Times that Zikalala's comments were prompted by the recent public spat over the ANC's resolution to nationalise the Bank and change its mandate.
