ANC chair Gwede Mantasha to visit Western Cape this weekend to address service delivery issues

African National Congress (ANC) chairperson Gwede Mantashe is in the Western Cape this weekend to address party members on service delivery as well as mining issues along the west coast.

Mantashe’s heading up the ANC’s Letsema Campaign in the province to improve service delivery.

The party is also finalizing its nomination process ahead of its December conference.

Mantashe is one of the ANC’s top six leaders sent to the Western Cape as part of the party’s Letsema campaign to build ANC structures.

But Mantashe’s visit won’t be confined to just party activities as it will look into areas of service delivery around mining, especially along the west coast.

ANC interim provincial committee chairperson Lerumo Kalako said: “In the ward which we are having the Letsema, he [Gwede Mantashe] will address the community on service delivery things and, of course, also on his department because you will remember the west coast has got some mining activity there.”

The ANC in the Western Cape is also putting its provincial conference on the back burner while it finalises its branch nomination process.

The party will hold a provincial general council at the end of the month to consolidate its choice of preferred leaders and NEC members.
