ANC deputy president hopeful, Paul Mashatile, who has also left the door open for a last-minute bid for the party presidency has warned that the policies the party would adopt will be more significant than those who will lead the ANC. | JKwritingz
As a tribute to Anton, ANC branches Ward 49 and Ward 31 hosted a joint programme to commemorate his death. He went on to describe him as being “defiant until the very end” and urged current ANC members to exhibit similar qualities.
As such, Mashatile, who has been nominated for the deputy presidency and looks set to be elected with not much opposition, encouraged party delegates to properly vet their preferred candidates and ensure that those that emerge victorious are selfless members who will work for the communities that elected them.
“When we get out of that conference, we must hit the ground running and must focus on implementation. We can’t take time to implement; our people want to escape poverty,” said Mashatile. Asked by journalists whether he would consider gunning for the party’s presidency since he already appeared to be in pole position for deputy presidency, Mashatile did not rule out the possibility saying it would depend on whether branches want him to make the bid and the circumstances leading to his nomination for this position.
