Party has come under heavy criticism for its electoral lists
The ANC’s top six officials will meet on Monday to discuss a report compiled by the party’s integrity commission over its candidate lists, spokesperson Dakota Legoete says.
Two weeks ago, by the deadline for objections to party lists, the Electoral Commission of SA had received 29 objections to the ANC’s lists, including to the candidacy of Mokonyane, Dlamini and ministers such as Zweli Mkhize, Angie Motshekga and Bheki Cele. The commission did not uphold one of the objections.
Legoete said on Sunday he could not confirm either the names or the content of the integrity commission’s report, as he had not yet seen it, but confirmed that the top six would deal with the matter on Monday. However, he said a special NEC meeting was not expected to be called, as the party was “deep in the campaign”. He said the next NEC meeting would be held after the elections.
The claim was amplified when Ramaphosa hit the campaign trail on Thursday. He called on the metro and DA mayor Herman Mashaba to clean up Alexandra, before petitioning voters to support the ANC. Maimane said on Sunday that the situation requires “urgent intervention”. He said police commissioner Khehla Sitole’s commitment to meet him on April 29 was simply “not good enough”.
