ANC staff expected to picket on June 15 “at Luthuli House” & other offices. Salaries for May were not paid nor petrol/data claims. Party spokesperson Pule Mabe says “officials are attending to the ANC cash flow challenges” & it's reached “critical point”

This in addition to the ANC not paying staff members' provident funds, which have been in arrears for the past 28 months. Petrol and cellphone data claims as well as medical aids have also not been paid.

But just last month, the party said it was considering retrenching 50% of its staffers at Luthuli House due to its financial woes.ANC deputy secretary-general Jessie Duarte added the party was not broke, it was simply experiencing some cash flow troubles, saying its financial woes were known and the Political Party Funding Act had worsened the problem.

He added executing a local government election campaign would be difficult, given the circumstances. "We finding it very, very difficult to raise funds. You have Covid-19 and you also have the Political Party Funding Act." "The GM [Potgieter] said it herself that there's no indication, there's none. They can't say today, tomorrow, next week, or whenever, there's none."
