The ANC’s Eastern Cape elective conference will go ahead as planned this weekend in East London.
Asked if the provincial conference was going ahead as planned, Mabe responded via text:"Yes, it is."
On Wednesday at 2pm, the national executive committee delegates to the provincial conference convened a meeting with members of the provincial task team to discuss a way forward. Former allies Oscar Mabuyane and Babalo Madikizela, running for the chairperson position, with Mabuyane seeking a second term, have divided the province into two factions.
Since lobbying started, the Maliya slate has taunted Mabuyane’s faction with the slogan “Akabuyi”, loosely translated “he’s not returning for a second term”.
