New entrant in the race for ANC Mpumalanga leadership, David Dube, says his group’s campaign is not about occupying leadership positions, but rebuilding a divided ANC and delivering services
Dube was provincial ANC deputy chairperson from 2012 to 2015, working closely with Deputy President David Mabuza, who was chairperson and Mpumalanga premier.
Other contenders – Premier Refilwe Mtshweni-Tsipane and Mandla Ndlovu – have been largely seen as Mabuza’s extensions, prone to his influence and likely to continue his legacy. We wonder where the other people get their money and what message are they sending to the communities because this money should be directed towards alleviating poverty
A view from Dube’s lobby group is that their rivals are using state and ANC resources for their campaigns. “The youth must be helped to develop themselves. Look at the case of [Justice and Correctional Services Minister] Ronald Lamola, he became what he is because he was resilient. Had he focused on fighting factional battles for old members he would not be where he is today.“When it comes to governance, our institutions are failing to provide services. We’re contaminating that space ... Oversight is lacking and the levels of corruption are very high,” he said.
