On Monday night, Ramaphosa accompanied and the top six officials paid a courtesy visit to struggle icon home in Soweto.
The visit is part of a programme by the officials to honour living and past stalwarts of the organisation.
Ramaphosa says they can learn a lot from the elders of the party.
Meanwhile, Madikizela-Mandela says the ANC Women’s League did not work hard enough to convince party members to vote in more women into the top leadership.
