Newsletter| ANC member, Ponani Makhubele, who was on the party’s list of candidates for Parliament but was mysteriously removed is headed to the courts to contest her exclusion

Ponani Makhubele, from Limpopo, has rejected the changes made to the list submitted to the independent electoral commission by ANC Secretary-General Ace Magashule.

In a six-page letter to Luthuli House, which City Press has seen, Makhubele said she was a victim of factional battles in Limpopo. Makhubele, a former Greater Giyani municipality councillor, was at the forefront of the protests demanding the resignation of ANC deputy provincial chairperson Florence Radzilani and treasurer Danny Msiza.She has blamed her removal from the list on the battle for the control of the party in the province between two factions – one led by provincial secretary Soviet Lekganyane and the other by deputy provincial secretary Basikopo Makamu.

Lekganyane said the ANC had to intervene to ensure that the list had youth, minority and alliance partner representation. “I have been democratically elected by the branches and the PEC collective as per guidelines. A list which had my name in the top 13 within the 19 names that fall in the reserved list was adopted. While other provinces released outcomes of list conferences, Limpopo did not. Those of us who happen to known saw them by chance and information sharing with other leaders who serve in the provincial working committee. People who did not make it to the list are topping the list.
