With incidents of fighting, threats of court action, interference by senior officials and bogus delegates at the Nasrec Expo Centre, the ANCYL's conference this weekend promises to provide plenty more drama. What is your take on the future of the league?

Judging by the chaotic scenes at the registration centre of delegates for the ANCYL national congress yesterday, the next three days might be rather chaotic.

The meeting was characterised by drama as the convenor, Xola Nqola, was suspended after being accused of having been involved in organising one of the illegal regional conferences in the Eastern Cape. They have been accused of trying to influence the leadership of the youth structure before the congress.

Several regions, including Vhembe, threatened to go to court after their grievances were not addressed. The region complained about verification processes and other logistics, which they claimed were raised before congress. The committee refused to respond to allegations mentioned by some branches, arguing that its mandate was to facilitate the congress.

“The agency further provided all nomination boxes, which were properly sealed for unsealing the presence of all the observers. The counting of nominations started immediately after the opening of the boxes, with the first phase being for the ANC Youth League official position in line with the guidelines,” he said.
