The ANC’s new leadership in Limpopo is expected to be announced on Sunday morning as results are still being finalised by the IEC at the elective conference in Polokwane.

Voting took place on Saturday night.

Current provincial chairperson Stan Mathabatha, who’s also Premier of Limpopo, was unopposed and will retain the post.

Meanwhile, disgruntled Limpopo ANC members still hope to have a court find that the outgoing provincial leadership is illegitimate.

They brought an application to the High Court in Johannesburg on Saturday trying to interdict the on-going provincial conference.

However, the court struck the application off the roll with costs on the grounds that the matter was not urgent.

The lawyer representing the disgruntled members, Tumi Mokoena, says his clients still have an opportunity to bring the matter back to court.
