The African National Congress (ANC) President Cyril Ramaphosa is expected to officially open the party’s Lekgotla in Boksburg east of Johannesburg.
The Lekgotla follows the ANC National Executive Committee meeting. The Lekgotla will focus on the ANC’s six priorities in its 2024 elections manifesto. The party lost its majority in the May 29 poll, which led to the formation of the Government of National Unity.
“The Lekgotla which will take place over a three-day period, follows the three-day NEC meeting which concluded yesterday. Ministers, Deputy Ministers, provincial premiers and executive mayors who will be in attendance, are expected to expand and refine action plans, based on the ANC’s six key priorities communicated at its 2024 elections manifesto. These include driving inclusive growth and job creation, reducing poverty and tackling the high cost of living, as well as building a capable, ethical and developmental state.
