ANC Elective Conference 2022

 

The African National Congress (ANC) has new leadership elected by delegates at its 55th National Conference on a ticket of renewal and unity with Cyril Ramaphosa making a return to the top.

Instead of a top six as has been the case over the years, the governing party has seven leaders after adding the position of second deputy secretary general.

There's been a great deal of reaction around the new leadership with former president Thabo Mbeki saying he supports whoever the ANC conference elected as the party's new top seven.

ANC delegates who were in support of Mkhize for the presidency said their next call of action is to support Ramaphosa during his second term.
