ANC
*ANC Statement, 25 February 2012* *NUMSA Resolution*The African National Congress is concerned about the resolution of the National Union of Metal Workers of South Africa (NUMSA) that calls for the removal of the current national leadership of the ANC.The ANC respects the independence of its alliance partners and therefore does not interfere in the internal democratic processes that elect their leadership.The resolution by NUMSA is not in line with respect of independence enjoyed by individual member organisations of the Tripartite Alliance.
The determination of the leadership of the ANC is the sole responsibility of the ANC branches and the Leagues of the ANC that will be nominating for the National Elective Conference in December 2012.The position adopted by NUMSA is tantamount to interference with the internal democratic processes of the ANC.We believe that there are adequate alliance structures that NUMSA could have used to communicate whatever dissatisfaction they may have had.
We want to reiterate our commitment to open communication on issues affecting our organisations and on issues of public policy.We believe that the public has a role in adding value to our discussions.In our last national elections we made a bold statement that enjoins us with the broader public to act in concert to accelerate service delivery and entrench democracy.This therefore calls for continuous engagement and consultation with our people.
