The IEC requires political parties to submit their candidate lists for the National Assembly and provincial legislatures by the close of business on Wednesday.
Political parties have a day left to submit their candidate lists for the National Assembly and provincial legislatures to the Independent Electoral Commission of South Africa ahead of its Wednesday deadline.
Acting national spokesperson Dakota Legoete told News24 20 people had appeared before the top six group of leaders to state their case for selection. An NWC member who did not want to be named said 38 people had been removed from the list but that their names were not known to all members. Another NWC member said only 15 names had been removed from the ANC's list of party officials to be deployed to the National Assembly.This member said the selection criteria focused on three aspects – the person's criminal record, the ANC's own constitution on illegibility and its"through the eye of the needle" document, which determined if they have"impeccable credentials".
The ANC in the North West is currently embarking on a project to unite the fractured membership in the platinum-rich province following a series of intense and sometimes public leadership battles, including two court cases.The party's provincial task team and the provincial executive committee have since merged to become a single interim structure.
One of the NWC members who spoke to News24 confirmed this, saying the list, which returns to the national list committee, has to have more names added to it.
