Leader Themba Sigudla said they expected Sancota to do well in areas like Nkomazi, Bushbuckridge, Emalahleni and Dr JS Moroka.
Themba Sigudla, a Mpumalanga businessperson and the reportedly estranged friend of Deputy President David Mabuza, is pleased with the performance of his SA National Congress of Traditional Authorities , both nationally and provincially.Multimillionaire Sigudla established the party following a fallout with Mabuza after the ANC December 2017 elective conference at Nasrec, Johannesburg. It was at this gathering were Mabuza was elected ANC deputy president after some last-minute horse-trading.
Sigudla said they expected Sancota to do well in areas like Nkomazi, Bushbuckridge, Emalahleni and Dr JS Moroka once all votes had been counted. Founded by Sigudla in 2017, PretSA had pronounced that it preferred veteran Nkosazana Dlamini-Zuma to be ANC president and Sigudla funded her campaign, leading to everyone thinking Mabuza was backing Dlamini-Zuma.
In happier times when he was Mpumalanga premier, Mabuza ordered his government to work hand-in-hand with PretSA, with the NGO becoming influential within the party.
