[WATCH] ANC UPLOADED NAMES ON TIME AND SOME WERE KICKED OUT DUE TO TECHNICAL GLITCHES “We did upload all of the candidates, it’s important to assure our members, supporters and our community that participated in the candidate selection process that took place. We did upload all of our candidates from all the nine provinces and regions on time. The 28th of August was the final day of submission of the final list, why it took place then is because the ANC undergoes an extensive process of vetting and interviewing and holding community meetings, all of this take time. We are very robust in how we’ve improved our candidate selection process. The very last portion of the batch is when the system started kicking them out. That was before 5 o’clock. We are not discussing here a lack of compliance on the part of the African National Congress with regards to meeting the deadline but a batch of names on the uploaded list that were kicked out. We are asking the IEC to consider for submission all those candidates who had already been captured in the IEC system but were kicked out. The second thing we are asking is to get to the bottom of why the very last batch was kicked out. We are asking for an investigation and this will get us to the bottom of the issue. This ties in with the question of are we fighting with the IEC? We are not. We respect and continue to have the full confidence in the integrity of the IEC run processes. It continues being one of the most important institutions and hallmarks of our democracy and that is why we hope that a constructive engagement can take place and an investigation on whether there were technological challenges that were not foreseen” -ANC SPOKESPERSON MAHLENGI BHENGU

[WATCH] IN THE INTEREST OF JUSTICE AND DEMOCRATIC PARTICIPATION. In the interest of democratic participation and to allow our communities to exercise their fair choice in selecting those they believe will be the best public representatives. Those communities affected we believe should be given the opportunity to participate in the democratic processes. It is not harmful to democracy to allow the investigation into the technical issues to take place. On of the major changes is how the ANC manages the candidate selection process is that there are new requirements, the criteria we use now is much more stringent to ensure that those we send to contest elections are qualifying and wanted by their communities, both in ethical conduct, skills and competence. What that means is that ANC processes of candidates selection are very laborious and we are the first to admit that they are laborious because we involve over a period of time many stakeholders including the community, to those who say why we left things to the eleventh hour we can say categorically we did not. We want to assure our members and communities that those communities and municipalities affected we are dealing with this issue and do find justice in the process and that they will exercise their democratic right. That is why we are asking for a constructive solution with the independent electoral commission and we do believe they will open the door to engagement, it is a Chapter 9 institution it is duty bound to find a solution as long as that solution does not break the law. We are not asking for any changes in our list, we are asking for that portion that was kicked out to be investigated.

[WATCH] EFFECTS OF APARTHEID SPATIAL PLANNING THAT DA IS STILL PERPETUATING Some experts speak about our failures but refuse to speak about the apartheid spatial planning in Cape Town that is still being perpetuated by the DA. The Public Protector ruled against them. We do not have that, we are servicing everybody equally and at the same time faced with the question of those who do not have(indigent) in the system and unable to pay for systems, we still service them equally. Unlike the DA. Huge amounts of money from national treasury go to municipalities which don’t even generate revenue.

[WATCH] MUNICIPAL WORKERS MUST BE INSOURCED Let’s insource workers in the municipalities, let municipal workers work for the municipality, that’s what we want as the African National Congress. When you have experience, you can’t repeat the same mistakes all the time. If there are potholes, which are caused by floods and heavy rainfall they must be fixed immediately. The yellow fleets must do their jobs and also be held accountable. #VoteANC

[PRESIDENT SPEECH IN TSHWANE REGIONAL MANIFESTO RALLY] When I was in the Western Cape for a visit , looking around at the houses the ANC has built, the MEC there told me that when the houses were built they cost 160 000 rand each but now they are valued at 400 000 rands. These are the assets the ANC is giving to the people, for free. This shows that the ANC in all honesty takes care of the people. It has come with policies that are there to assist the people, such as the NHI and we have built many clinics for our people and we are continuing with building new hospitals. #VoteAnc2026 #AncManifesto #Letsbuildbettercommunities

Gedleyihlekisa went to go meet with the Guptas who are fugitives of the law in South Africa. Spitting in the face of our law enforcement agencies. Instead of partying up a storm with runaway criminals, Jacob Zuma should inform the government where are these people who almost collapsed and captured our state.

[WATCH] ON THE CORRECTIVE MEASURES BEING TAKEN AT LOCAL GOVERNMENT LEVEL. We have experience and we are action oriented and we admit to our mistakes which we are fixing as we speak. Some of them dire and costly but they have been corrected and fixed. We have a plan that is not based on fiction but on the realities on the ground. We are dealing with water, electricity, fixing potholes and the budget, building more houses and fixing our infrastructure. We also dealing with the settlement expansion of our urban areas. We are not thumb sucking these interventions, we are fixing them. #ANCManifesto2026 #VoteANC2026 #LetsContinueBuildingBetterCommunitiesTogether

[WATCH] Before I was SG I once said things about Nkosazana which I withdrew, publicly and I apologised. I said she is JZ wife. It was wrong for me to say that and I apologised to the NEC and to her. Because my mother in her grave would never allow me to say such things, I should have never judged Mam Nkosazana and her track record on the basis of her being Jacob Zumas wife. It was wrong to say that about a veteran of our movement. So we all say things but we must reflect and apologise. I hold her in high regard but I will never allow anyone to say things about me that I did not do such as dishing out money. #RegisterToVoteANC #LGE2026

[WATCH] THE CHALLENGES OF GOVERNING IN A COALITION Where we were governing with a majority we were doing wonders in terms of developing our cities, there were shortcomings but we were on the way forward. In Johannesburg before it fell into the hands of the coalition the ANC was good, we fixed potholes and were consistent in our delivery of services. When the municipality fell into the hands of the coalition we had parties that we could not control hence what we see today in our municipalities. #ANCManifesto2026 #VoteANC2026 #LetsContinueBuildingBetterCommunitiesTogether
