Committing himself to a seamless handover of the political baton, Gauteng ANC chair Panyaza Lesufi yesterday said he had no intention of taking over from premier David Makhura before the 2024 expiry of his term of office.

“We are trying to get the ANC right and not rush into occupying government positions. The ANC is agile and we have to sought it out first. South Africans are emotionally attached to the ANC – whether they are members or not. We should not take people’s concerns for granted. Our major challenge is to fix the ANC first.”While denying that the Gauteng ANC conference was “shambolic” or “chaotic”, Lesufi reflected “on logistical and other challenges” he experienced.

He said there were delays in the outcome due to the challenges experienced in the Ekurhuleni regional conference.
