Zandile Gumede nominated in absentia as ANC eThekwini regional chairperson - But the corruption-accused former mayor was not allowed to attend the elective meeting
eThekwini regional chairperson after voting — delayed by a day-long battle over participation in the election — finally got underway.
Nyawose accepted nomination to stand against Gumede, who did not attend the conference as she is out on bail for corruption and is not allowed to participate in ANC activities because of the party’s step-aside rule. Gumede’s running mates — deputy chairperson Thembo Ntuli, secretary Musa Nciki, deputy secretary Nkosenhle Madlala and treasurer Nomthandazo Shabalala — all accepted nomination.
A total of 370 delegates from 90 of the region’s 111 branches were eligible to vote in the election, a second part of which will elect the rest of the eThekwini regional executive committee.
