The step aside policy of the ANC is likely to be discussed in the wake of the re-election of Zandile Gumede as the eThekwini Regional Chairperson, while facing criminal charges.

The meeting also takes place following new information, that two witnesses have dropped their statements in the murder case facing ANC Mpumalanga newly elected Treasurer, Mandla Msibi, who had since stepped aside.

A busy year indeed for the ANC. Time is running out for the party to hold its policy conference which has to take place in between national conferences.

In its last NEC meeting, the party assigned top six leaders to deal with the conviction of ANC Women’s League president, Bathabile Dlamini and a report of their meeting is likely to be tabled in the meeting.
