‘It would be history in the making’ – Women touted to lead ANC Youth League

The National Youth Task Team’s spokesperson, Sizophila Mkhize, told City Press that appointing a woman for the position would be a turning point for the ANC and would be a catalyst in derailing patriarchy.

Mkhize told City Press that, should a female candidate be chosen to lead the youth league, it could mark a turning point for young people and serve as a catalyst in derailing entrenched patriarchy in the party.“It could be very good for the ANC. I believe even the mother body could take up the example of the youth league. The world is changing ... we should also be able to say: ‘Do not oppress young people if they want to contest and lead the structures of the ANC.

“Even though he may be someone who could bring the youth league back to relevance, given that he has led the Congress of SA Students for years, it is a different story when it comes to leading the youth league,” he said.He downplayed his perceived inexperience in league structures, saying he had been part of the youth league for more than a decade.

Knowing the track record of this mbutho. We shall wait & see😒
