Former ANC Youth League Secretary General Sihle Zikalala says the primary task of the newly-elected leadership of their youth formation is to reconnect with the country’s youth.
Former ANC Youth League Secretary General Sihle Zikalala says after almost a decade of no formal and formidable youth structure in the governing party, the primary task of the newly-elected leadership of their youth formation is to reconnect with the country’s youth.
Currently, over 60% of young people are unemployed with some of them consumed in the abuse of alcohol and drugs. “I think the first priority of the elected leadership will be connect the ANCYL with the youth. In terms of the youth sector, you have those who are workers, but you have the those in school and those who are unemployed, as well as those upcoming as workers in government. So, I think the primary task of the league leadership is to connect the youth with the ANCYL and the ANC.
Others elected to the youth league’s leadership included Phumzile Mgcina, who was elected deputy president; Mntuwoxolo Ngudle as secretary general, Tsakani Shiviti as deputy secretary general; and Zwelo Masilela as the treasurer general.
