The party will not be drawn into revealing who will be in charge of the provinces after upcoming elections.
Eastern Cape: Cde Oscar MabuyaneIt may nevertheless turn out to be quite close to the final list once the dust settles after May 8.
Mmusi Maimane, with the DA’s Western Cape premier candidate Alan Winde, have criticised the ANC for their ongoing secrecy on the matter. He alleged the ANC wanted to only announce its list after elections so they could supposedly impose “corrupt leaders” on unsuspecting voters. However, Legoete responded that the ANC approach has been consistent and that after elections each provincial executive committee sits and recommend names in order of preference.
“These names will be presented to a national deployment committee and adopted by the NEC of the ANC,” he told IOL. “That is how we as the ANC do it and we have always done it this way.”"Legoete said the DA's accusations that the ANC planned to appoint questionable candidates was untruthful and that the PEC/NEC process was designed to ensure the best possible members are chosen."
