ANC no letters.jpg Johannesburg, 10 January 2017 ANC Gauteng Deputy Chairperson Condemns Malicious Circulation of Lists and Slates The Deputy Chairperson of the ANC in the Gauteng Province, Comrade David Makhura has strongly condemned the continuing malicious circulation of lists. Both the public pronouncements and circulation of lists go against the spirit of both the NEC and the PEC. Today, The New Age newspaper published a list of names purported to be of candidates for the 2017 ANC National Conference. "I personally detest the politics of slates and strongly condemn divisive activities which undermine the effort to build a united ANC that serve the people of South Africa with distinction", Makhura said. He reiterated that he won't allow his name to be used to cause confusion and divisions in the ranks of the movement. "More than ever before, all of us are called upon to approach the 54th National Conference in a manner that enhances unity in order enable the ANC to recover lost ground and win back the public confidence. Slates, factionalism and corrupt practices must have no place in the ANC. The Unity of the ANC is paramount to the success of the transformation of South Africa" added Makhura. The Deputy Chairperson pointed out that an impression is created that those whose names appear on the lists are involved in the succession discussion. "Speaking for myself, I would like to state categorically that I have always respected the advice of both the NEC and the PEC that we should at all times first discuss the principles and tasks of the ANC and our revolution in a given period before we decide on the leadership that is suitable to fulfill these tasks", Makhura said. He called on the faceless distributors of lists to desist from using his name and those of other leaders to take us back to the politics of slates. "Let us all heed the call made in the January 8th Statement of the NEC and work tirelessly to unite the ANC", said the Deputy Chairperson.
