The ANC is yet to manage the internal conflict that has resulted from the party's IEC list.
ANC top six; Jessie Duarte, Ace Magashule, Gwede Mantashe, Cyril Ramaphosa, David Mabuza and Paul Mashatile on stage during the delivery of President Ramaphosa’s January 8 Statement at the party’s 106th birthday celebrations at Absa Stadium on January 13, 2018 in East London. Picture: Gallo ImagesAn ANC national executive committee meeting taking place on Monday is expected to provide a way forward for those ANC members implicated in corruption and state capture.
Party secretary-general Ace Magashule is one of those who has defended the list, saying people who did not have a criminal record should remain on it, while party stalwart Cheryl Carolus sang a different tune. Speaking at the Ahmed Kathrada foundation recently, Carolus said the ANC had to take a clear stand on those implicated. Referring to those implicated as “tsotsis”, she said it was “nonsense” to defend those implicated as “innocent until proven guilty”.
ANC spokesperson Dakota Legoete confirmed Monday’s meeting and that the party’s list would feature in today’s discussions.: “One of the approaches we will discuss is whether people who are implicated should step aside if there are issues or should the party allow the IEC to remove you.” Those facing criminal charges were removed from the list, he said.
