'When the IEC put the question to Winnie there was a tense moment, should she accept the nomination and if so what would she do if she lost against comrade Zuma.'

She reflected on the ANC’s 1997 Mafikeng conference where Madikizela-Mandela was to contest Jacob Zuma for the deputy presidency of the ANC.

Sisulu evoked Madikizela-Mandela’s legacy as a feminist who was firmly against patriarchy, saying the scourge of femicide and abuse against women would have been dealt with. “I am putting this across to you to indicate that we would have gained so much more, had Mam' Winnie been given the opportunity and it would have taken nothing from anybody. Imagine how much more caring we would be as a society,” she said.
