There seems to be fractures in the African National Congress (ANC) in the North West province. The party’s Interim Provincial Committee (IPC) says some of its members within the provincial legislature, were in cahoots with opposition parties. The IPC is accusing them of voting with opposition benches during the election of a new Chair of Chairs. The party says members have defied its mandate.
According to reports, five members of the ANC, among them, Premier Job Mokgoro, voted with opposition parties. The Democratic Alliance (DA) nominated the candidate who obtained 15 votes against 14 received by her contender. The winner, Pricilla Williams, contested against former Mahikeng local municipal mayor, Lena Miga.
