ANC’s new NW leadership – Same same, but different
The election of former African National Congress MP Nono Maloyi as the new provincial chairperson won't positively change the lives of impoverished residents across the North West, but was simply an opportunity to weaken the party's opposing factions. University of Free State politics professor Sethulego Matebesi said Maloyi and his"N12" faction's priority will be to consolidate power as the province enters the post-Supra Mahumapelo era.
The province has been under interim ANC structures for the past four years. In 2018, Mahumapelo was forced to resign as premier over a string of corruption allegations. Rolling protests against lack of service delivery, corruption and unemployment rocked his premiership. “So, I won’t be surprised if a cabinet reshuffle happens in North West. We are talking about a political organisation whose primary purpose is to advance development and ensure a good quality of life for citizens. It is claiming it’s the leader of society, but they don’t even come close to 10% on that, because 90% of the time, the ANC is all about advancing the interests of its political leaders.
