'Politics of reciprocity': Stanley Mathabatha, Lebogang Maile push Limpopo, Gauteng to support MkhizeAfter being dumped by President Cyril Ramaphosa's renew22 campaign, ANC Limpopo chairperson Stan Mathabatha has thrown his weight behind Zweli Mkhize in the race for the presidency.
This as Mkhize's camp embraced Mathabatha as its candidate for the ANC national chairperson position while President Cyril Ramaphosa's allies insisted they would put their weight behind Gwede Mantashe. At the same time, ANC leaders who failed to make the ballot for the ANC presidency, Lindiwe Sisulu and Nkosazana Dlamini-Zuma, threw their weight behind Mkhize. Mkhize lobbyists said they believed the growth in support for the former health minister from Limpopo and Gauteng was detrimental for Ramaphosa. The ANC Limpopo chairperson attended a head-counting event held by the Mkhize camp on Sunday afternoon as delegates were expected to start voting later in the day.
In a last-ditch attempt to crack the whip by the province, it sent out a statement on Sunday saying:"The ANC in Limpopo PEC has noted some statements making the rounds on various media platforms wherein an unfortunate impression was created that we have deserted the outcomes of a branch general meeting."
He showed his true colours now, he must follow them
This man is in trouble. LP branches are waiting to kill him.
Why Limpopo was singing for cde Zweli if Stan went against the province. Propaganda machine at it again.
Stan Mathabatha, is unrealible servants, we as branches we agreed on President Ramaphosa.
His numbers were closed to win as Chairperson just he changed tune so late as many of his branch delegates already had CR I mind If only he endorse Zweli from January he could have won. he was supporting CR all year untill last second and too late 2 convince his own delegate
Remove him Cyril...Cyril remove him...we now need Provincial and cabinet reshuffle ...tjeeerr...enough with these traitors. Gaaa
Totally unreliable. Total fraud. Thank god not elected
Your article is misleading and illinformed. The Provincial leadership in a conference is ceased with the task of lobbying and that determines the direction of voting. This narrative that CR is the ONLY leader will haunt the ANC in the future.
Coward hey?
They probably gave him a bag😭🤣😭🤣🤣
Follow the money
We thank God of heaven,he didn't do it alone but with about half of Limpopo delegates,Cyril like Nebuchadnezzar thought he was God,he will eat grass like beast.God is in control of the world.Daniel 2:21-22
They want to create a narrative that Mathabatha influenced the province's branches to vote against their puppet for Ranko to take the votes to Zondo to invalidate them.
Sellout
May God protect this man from all allegations against him
Tsek! It's called persuasion.
Wonder how much money he was paid?
Nonsense24/7 cantchu wait like most us or the pain is unbearable?
Nowonder he was made a fool by a project of expensive shacks which he thought it was houses
thandomahlangu_ Delegates can influence or be influenced, well those supporting Cyril aren’t supporting him either, kzn nomination means a lot to him.
Mathabatha is a sellout.
Boooooooom💥💥💥 I want to see how you are going to recover, from being used by Cyril after the conference
AKABUYI!
He must have a another pf weight... he is chowing alone... watch this guy
Motho o paletse modimo but cyril is coming back anyway
Are u pained? 😄😄
Did Zweli give him a bigger envelope?
It seems like this media News24 is reporting in serious pains. What's your problem kahle kahle when Cyril loses. Are you not independent media house?
Ramaphosa faction showing its ugly self🤣🤣🤣🤣
They all corrupt!
Let anc finish what it started. We saw the start now we must see the end
What directive as if u are one of Limpopo branch regional or provincial delegate please sit down
UnmovedLee Chest pain kwa Stratcom
If u can't beat them then join then. But this strategy was used by DD Mabuza b4. Let's see if KZN will trust him
Wiseman always çhange his decision
He has seen the LIGHT!!
sellout this one..
Good. They should stop being voting cows and take decisive steps to ensure that they are seen and heard. The 3rd biggest province should also put forward its candidates for top 6, not be 'accommodated'. Anyway Stan is useless
This isn't about positions anymore, is about the survival of the ANC
Probably received a thick brown envelope...
S0?
Thank you for clarifying who's winning.
Sis
Are u guys starting to cry?
Music To My Ears💃🏿
The man is corrupt and not trusted
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 but the Branch ddelegates are there in Nasrec with Stan Mathabatha . What are you on about FakeNews24. Acting Desperate now
The leadership of Limpopo like everyone on the slate of the Bside can’t risk prison hence they had to coalesce to ensure that they don’t get caged. Remember it happened to their overlord!
he's forgetting that the same people might not vote for him once he arrives back home they chase him. stomach politics 🙄
And people still support ANC. They don't even trust each other. Why should anyone else?
He did well. Ramaphosa ndi mbudzi
I learned some time ago the Limpopo support was not genuine 💯. It was 'only an act' & deceptive in order to manage Ramaphosa. The leadership there was trying to make Ramaphosa relax & not work hard thinking that he had their support. Remember Stanley was always a Zuma man.
Stomach politics.
He supports those who supports him
Good move✊
money talks.
Le a peinelwa
News24 is that you? 🤣
This one after the conference he must go stay in kzn
He has been paid
