ANC veterans were expected to air their concerns about the party at the second session of its national working committee on Monday afternoon. The meeting followed a request by the veterans for a meeting with President Jacob Zuma to address concerns in party ranks and his fitness to hold office as leader of the party and county. "This meeting is in fulfillment of our commitment we made post August 3 (local government elections) where we spoke about self-introspection‚ but broadly to engage to foster unity in the ANC‚" said party spokesman Zizi Kodwa.

"Stalwarts whom we are meeting here today have remained a fountain of wisdom of guidance in the leadership of the ANC and broadly to the liberation movement for many years‚" said Kodwa.
