ANC secretary-general Fikile Mbalula has axed Xola Nqola as the convener of the party youth league task team on the eve of its national conference.
The Eastern Cape conference, which elected its leadership in the still of the night, was said to have been “patently irregular” and “unauthorised” by Mbalula, who read Nqola and some of the task team members the riot act on Wednesday.
“This leaves the SGO with no option but to take the necessary urgent corrective measures to ensure that the mandate given to the ANCYL by the NWC is carried out,” wrote Mbalula. Reading them the riot act, Mbalula on Wednesday had told Nqola and others that they had spread false information that in a meeting with them on Monday evening he gave the conference the go-ahead when he had not.
“It was clear that this would render the conference non-compliant and thus open to a challenge,” wrote Mbalula in a letter dated June 28. “Accordingly, we directed in clear and uncertain terms that the ANCYL Eastern Cape provincial conference should not proceed but rather be scheduled to take place after the ANCYL national congress.”
