Provincial task team member Nhlakanipho Ntombela has also joined the Youth League program.

He is said to be also behind Ntuli for the position of Provincial Secretary as opposed to Zuma.

At a cadre’s forum at the Durban University of Technology Cane Growers Hall, Ntombela said, “There are two or three things we must remind ourselves. In the struggle, there was Nelson Mandela, Winnie Mandela, Walter Sisulu and Albertina Sisulu. They weren’t here by their surnames in the ANC.”

We must remind each other that the ANC has different generations of leadership. We must admit we made a mistake in 2015. We can’t make that mistake this weekend. The time is now for the next generation to take over.”

Ntuli then addressed the audience and said, “We need an ANC that is not only working amongst our people but deeply trusted by our people. We must make sure that our people believe in the ANC. We will not succeed in that responsibility if we not selfless and humble. Renewal will have its own opponents.”

Some of those opponents will be within the ANC. We will read that between the lines in their conduct. We will see this because they will refuse to be led because they are not used to be commanded.

We can’t renew the ANC unless we confront the issue of patronage in our movement head-on. I knew those who against renewal because they are impatient against arguments. I know them because they are not dynamic.” added Ntuli

The conference will take place at the Durban University of Technology from 19-21 July.
