Former president Thabo Mbeki has made an impassioned plea for unity in the ANC.

A family associate and friend of ANC stalwart, Andrew Mlangeni, Malose Kekana, has called for ANC Integrity Committee that Mlangeni headed to be constitutionally independent of the ANC leadership and report to the party conference.

Former president Thabo Mbeki has made an impassioned plea for unity in the ANC and for the governing party to convene a special consultative conference to specifically discuss party renewal. Mbeki highlighted several issues raised at the ANC 54th national conference at Nasrec where delegates were worried about the loss of confidence in the ANC because of social distance, corruption, nepotism, arrogance, elitism, factionalism, manipulating the organisational national principles, abusing state power and, putting self-interests above the people.

Mbeki described Mlangeni as an ethical leader, who was not only concerned about the ANC but the revolution he sacrificed his life for. He said when people like him departed their spirits lived on and that their legacy should be emulated and they should be allowed to rest in peace. It was only after many months when he became frustrated because he came to realise that some people didn’t take the Integrity Commission seriously and thus publicly criticised people.
