However, the party’s provincial chairperson, David Makhura, has rubbished these claims, stating that they are baseless and unfounded. This comes amid a visit by ANC National Executive Committee member, Panyaza Lesufi, to the province.
Lesufi, who is also the Gauteng MEC for Education, has been tasked with conducting an assessment of the party’s structures in the province. This includes engaging with party members and conducting a thorough analysis of the party’s performance in the province.

The ANC in Gauteng has been facing challenges in recent years, including declining support in the province and allegations of corruption within the party’s structures. However, the party remains committed to addressing these issues and rebuilding its image in the eyes of the public.
Lesufi’s visit is seen as a positive step towards addressing these challenges and strengthening the party’s structures in the province. It also serves as a reminder that the ANC remains a united and resilient organization, capable of overcoming any obstacles it may face.
In conclusion, the visit by Panyaza Lesufi to Gauteng has been met with positivity and optimism within the party.
