President Cyril Ramaphosa says the ANC in the North West has no other choice but to forge unity in its provincial leadership as the party gears itself for elections.
"The combined leadership that combined the PEC the PTT is a matter that’s been dealt with thoroughly and extensively," Ramaphosa said.ANC secretary-general Ace Magashule announced this week that the new tentative leadership that would guide the ANC in the province to elections would be led by NEC members Obed Bapela and Mmaloko Kubayi Ngubane.
The team consists of the former leadership who won a court case against a decision to disband them and the structure that replaced that group. But that decision did not sit well with some party members who have threatened to go to court once again. While logistical concerns and fears of booing first gripped leaders in charge of organising the rally, Ramaphosa’s first address in the province since being elected president went down well.
He said he was encouraged by this and was expecting the party to get an increased majority in the general elections.
