It is also a major service provider when it comes to the internal elections of local trade unions: the National Union of Metalworkers of SA (Numsa) and union federation Cosatu have both been clients. He also “played a central role in the peace accords of the early Nineties”, He added: “EleXions has conducted ANC elections over the past 25 years with integrity and there is no basis whatsoever to doubt their credibility this time around. “The electoral committee is aware of this false allegation [regarding conflict of interest] which we dismiss with the contempt it deserves. Masila continued: “Dren Nupen has every right to do business on her own and independently so from her husband. Nupen, a small woman with white hair and glasses, will be a familiar figure to anyone who has followed ANC politics over the past 25 years. With their backs to the wall, the ANC’s Radical Economic Transformation faction is trying last-ditch desperate gambits. This is a SERIOUS CONFLICT of interest, & urgently deserves our attention. I would argue a legal interdict!” She’s running elections here, and that’s a conflict of interest. The fact is that Peter Harris is the lawyer of the ANC President, Cde Cyril Ramaphosa, and Charles Nupen is not.” So that’s why we are saying voting must be manual.”
