Mahumapelo and his detractors to work together on ANC North West task team

Some of Supra Mahumapelo's most vocal detractors will have to work with him as part of a provincial task team (PTT) seeking to rebuild a fractured organisation ahead of the 2019 elections.

The ANC confirmed on Thursday that Mahumapelo, the party's former North West chairperson, was part of a 32-member PTT.

The team is to be led by the North West premier, Job Mokgoro, who took over from Mahumapelo when he was forced to resign as premier of the province in May.

Makgoro has been appointed convenor of the conference and Keinetswe Mosenogi has been appointed co-ordinator.

ANC secretary general Ace Magashule announced that the task team would be supported by eight national executive committee (NEC) members.

This follows last month's NEC decision to disband Mahumapelo's provincial executive committee.

Some in the NEC claimed that the political party continued to suffer, even after Mahumapelo stepped down from his government role. Others accused him of launching parallel processes and conferences in the platinum-rich province.

China Dodvu, Philly Mapulane, Mmoloko Cwaile and Zac Tolo, who was once a favourite to replace Mahumapelo as premier, are just some of the former premier's detractors who now have to work with him in the hope of assisting the ANC to retain the province in next year's polls.

Sources previously told News24 the NEC did not want Mahumapelo in the PTT but that he was approved by the ANC' s national working committee during a meeting on Monday.

Magashule, however said the decision was a unanimous one.

" In our collective wisdom, I can tell you we agreed unanimously that these are the men and women who can take this province forward during this period and time," Magashule explained to journalists.
