ANC Power Struggle Over Candidate List | Johannesburg News
from Johannesburg News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!
Andile Lungisa is suing ANC secretary-general Fikile Mbalula, claiming he was unlawfully removed from the local government election candidate list for Nelson Mandela Bay — a move Lungisa says Mbalula personally ordered and that bypassed required party procedures. Lungisa argues his candidacy was vetted and approved, and his reinstatement is legally mandated. He alleges Mbalula’s motive was to avoid “problems” and has witnesses ready to testify. This legal battle adds urgency to the ANC’s existing dispute with the Electoral Commission over candidate data, as Lungisa’s case highlights what he calls a deliberate act — not an administrative slip — by top party leadership.
