The participation of one branch caused concerns among delegates, as it still had an outstanding dispute.
The most significant development of the night came with nominations, as Morero was initially unopposed in his election. He had been nominated alongside Moerane. Mgcina, who had initially met the threshold to contest the deputy chairperson position, was nominated from the floor by the ANC Women’s League. There was a solid push from branches that supported her.So strong was the push that a signature song, "Woman on top", trended among delegates when she accepted her nomination. Mgcina decided to turn down her nomination as deputy chairperson and only compete for the chairperson position.
While addressing delegates, ANC Gauteng chairperson David Makhura told them to bicker less about political positions and focus on winning Johannesburg back.We live in a world where facts and fiction get blurred In times of uncertainty you need journalism you can trust.
