Team Ramaphosa makes strides and secures spots in the ANC's ... (Independent Online)

President Cyril Ramaphosa defeated NEC member Dr Zweli Mkhize to retain the presidency, and cement his slate in the Top 7 structure at the ANC's national ...

“It’s going to be very important to see how the losers are going to react, but if you look at the candidates that have won, the majority is closer to Ramaphosa than to Zweli Mkhize and that’s a stabilising factor in the ANC and is constructive,” political analyst Professor Andre Duvenage said. Mkhize’s upsurge wasn’t enough to upset Ramaphosa. Political analyst Lukhanyo Vangqa said at least five of the seven elected officials were known Ramaphosa backers, giving him “latitude” which will depend on whether he has the “stomach for conflict” in the fights in the National Executive Committee. Political analyst Morena Motaung said the branches had spoken and that Ramaphosa’s re-election allows him to finish his plans that are in place. Out of a total of 4426 voting delegates, Ramaphosa garnered 2 436 votes to Mkhize’s 1 897 in a contest that had four spoiled votes and seven abstentions. Cape Town - President Cyril Ramaphosa defeated NEC member Dr Zweli Mkhize to retain the presidency, and cement his slate in the Top 7 structure at the ANC’s national elective conference on Monday.

Ramaphosa, Mashatile & Newco – These are the ANC's Top Seven (Daily Maverick)

The incoming Top Seven of the ANC sees a return of three members, with four new arrivals. We take a look at the new team at the top of the ruling party.

More significantly, since June 2022 she has been serving as national coordinator of the ANC Women’s League, which may explain her impressive electoral showing as a candidate who has been in the public eye very little. Having served in the Top Six of the ANC since 2012, he brings institutional memory in spades and his gruff, no-nonsense style can quieten a crowd in seconds. Major scandals: Virtually an entire volume of the Zondo Report is dedicated to Mokonyane — the portion dealing with Bosasa. Barring a four-year stint as an Ekurhuleni councillor in the late 1990s, Mantashe had largely stayed out of government until he was unexpectedly appointed as mineral resources minister by Ramaphosa in February 2018: a post which became minister of mineral resources and energy a year later. Mbalula formed part of the ANC Youth League leadership in the Julius Malema generation, though he is slightly older than Malema and Co. His brand is that of a moderate centrist who is pro-business, and in recent years at least, anti-corruption. Zuma and Mashatile have been foes for more than a decade, with the Gauteng ANC under Mashatile’s sway expressing increasingly vocal criticism of JZ from the Nkandla scandal onwards. The incoming Top Seven of the ANC sees a return of three members, with four new arrivals. Potted political bio: 60-year-old Mashatile hails from the township of Alexandra, in Johannesburg, an environment which has profoundly shaped his life. Fearing his influence over the province, Zuma moved Mashatile to the ANC Siberia — deputy and then full minister of arts and culture. In 2012 he made an unexpected return to active politics and won the deputy president role at the ANC conference in Mangaung, serving as DP for former president Jacob Zuma’s second term. He narrowly wrested power from Zuma at the ANC’s 2017 conference at Nasrec, and has served as ANC and country president since February 2018.
