ConCourt appeal scrapped in another blow for Ace Magashule 24 April 2021 - 09:59 Image: Esa Alexander
The ANC provincial executive committee (PEC) in the Free State has withdrawn its request to the Constitutional Court to set aside the Supreme Court of Appeal ruling that declared its election in 2018 unlawful and unconstitutional.
The decision to appeal by the PEC, through chairperson Sam Mashinini, raised eyebrows this week because the ANC national working committee (NWC) had made clear it preferred a “political solution”.

The SCA yesterday dismissed Zuma s appeal with costs on a punitive scale after he had challenged a ruling of the North Gauteng High Court in Pretoria which found in December 2018 that the state was not liable for Zuma s legal costs which have been incurred in his personal capacity.
