Sihle Zikala says he was not pushed out of the premier's position by the new leaders of the ANC in KwaZulu-Natal but left because of a perception spread in the province that he had betrayed former president Jacpob Zuma.

However in his resignation speech, the former premier dismissed these claims.

“The ANC’s principles of organisational democracy and discipline further underline that leaders must lead all members with the same and equal treatment. This is key to ensure unity and cohesion of the ANC,” Zikalala explained. “The journey we traversed from 2018 to the ANC ninth provincial conference was not easy but it managed to reintegrate all members of the organisation into one ANC. I have no doubt that there is a solid foundation upon which the elected leadership will continue to build and cement unity of the ANC and that of society,” Zikalala added.

Sihle my leader you bowed out gallantly. You showed that you love your Country by being on ground during the july unrest.most of us saw how frustrated you were

He will learn a lesson in the future. You can support the current leadership without insuring and offending last leadership. Ppl like sziks and MbalulaFikile don’t understand this concept

Probably also a lying corrupt stealing thief like zuma

R They really struggling to get into a modern mindset. The chief is still 'infallible'.

Zuma betrayed South Africa. Indefensible.

That narrative has always been there and he never resigned but why now? Because lost to taliban🤣🤣🤣

Isiqalile iyagqilaza lento manje, igqilaza ku touchline manje😂😂

Perceptions are indeed very dangerous...🤔

He has

I really appreciate allison_grillo effort for turning my little investment of R8000 i got a big smile on my face after withdrawing R80,000 as my profit i just want to make everyone know of allison_grillo and how she has helped me through tough times .

Siestog Fooitog!

Shame

Nothing about the legacy of his service to the people? All about factions?! Still! VoetsekANC

Subtle, gentle, soft touch to the door . The decision comes in the deep Nkandla forest.

Did I read former president Jacpob Zuma, spell check please

So the Zuma cult still haunts & determines leadership politics in KZN? A mere rapist dimwit thief who isn't enjoying his pension cos of his crimes still influences politics of young leaders? Not even the oceans in south & north coasts can't get rid them of the Zuma cult?
