As members are busy consolidating their positions towards the 55th National Conference, there is a strong feeling that the ANC must enhance its disciplinary code.
The IC currently only merely recommended to the party’s national executive committee action that should be taken against an offending member but was not empower to act by itself. There appeared to be a building consensus around Mchunu, but for the time being, the provinces were sticking to their original regional positions with on the DP position.
“This is not final, we will all get together to agree on one position on these matters,” the source said.In other position it’s Gwede Mantashe or Stan Mathabatha for national chairperson, Fikile Mbalula for secretary-general, Febe Potgieter for deputy secretary-general and Gwen Ramokgopa for treasurer-general.
KZN is notorious for its rigid regional bias in leadership selection, which explained why Inkatha Freedom Party voters moved to the ANC at the 2009 national election soon after Zuma was elected at Polokwane. Mchunu could sway a sizeable KZN support in Ramaphosa’s favour at the upcoming conference. Although this had been on the agenda for some time, there was a strong view that Rule 25 of the ANC constitution that governed organisational discipline should be amended to enable stricter application of discipline.
