The ANC in the Eastern Cape on Monday disbanded the Regional Executive Committee of the Amathole Region for ‘defying’ the party’s provincial leadership directives and failing ‘to save itself from itself’.
The ANC’s Eastern Cape secretary, Lulama Ngcukayitobi, on Monday announced that the Amathole regional leadership had been disbanded due to its inability to implement the programme of the ANC and that structures in the region had collapsed.
He said 70% of the branches that had been consulted in Amathole were in agreement with the decision to disband the leadership of the region.“The Provincial Executive Committee felt that there is nothing that can be done about the Regional Executive Committee of Amathole; it cannot save itself from itself.”The region did not support the current Provincial Executive Committee during the provincial conference where deputy president hopeful Oscar Mabuyane was elected as chairperson.
It has emerged that there were discussions to meet with Mpumalanga to discuss the possibilities of supporting the same people for the top six.
