Democratic Alliance Leader John Steenhuisen.
The Free State is the first province to hold its provincial Congress paving a way for the party’s national congress in April. “A good healthy dose of DA government. This is what the DA leader promises the residents of the Free State. Steenhuisen says the 300 delegates at the congress have to go back and build branches or a Blue army of activists. He has appealed to members to do everything in the coming 18 months to ensure that they leave nothing to chance.”
The Free State will be the first province to hold its Provincial Congress today – the start of a prized and cherished culture of internal democracy within our party which sets us apart from many other political organisations across the country.
