ANC nomination process kicks off in earnest
Branches are spoilt for choice this time, with seven presidential hopefuls in a field
The ANC’s nomination process for the December elective conference is set to kick off in earnest this weekend amid fear over the status of the leadership of two key provinces — KwaZulu-Natal and the Eastern Cape. Branches are spoilt for choice this time, with seven presidential hopefuls in a field that includes ANC deputy president Cyril Ramaphosa; President Jacob Zuma’s preferred successor, Nkosazana Dlamini-Zuma; and treasurer-general Zweli Mkhize. The governing party’s branches received instructions this week on how the nomination process works. They were urged to take leadership selection "very seriously".
