Gauteng ANC conference likely to produce mixed bag of leaders - No slate is expected to emerge victorious as poorly coordinated conference finally gets under way
, taking place in Benoni, could produce a mixed bag of leaders from contending factions.
In Johannesburg, the region is split between Lesufi and Maile. Bandile Masuku has been touted for the position of provincial secretary, to be nominated from the floor by the region. Masuku is on Lesufi’s slate. This will be the first conference since the start of the ANC’s conference season that will see a mix of leaders emerge.
In Limpopo, Stan Mathabatha and his slate had a landslide victory against Dickson Masemola and Soviet Lekganyane. The provincial executive committee met on Thursday morning and decided that the five branches — which produced 19 delegates — would be allowed to participate in the Gauteng conference, however their votes would be quarantined.
