Three disgruntled ANC members in the Free State are again heading to court to challenge the validity of the party's provincial conference and, by extension, its provincial and national lists.
This is the second attempt by the three to have the conference declared unlawful and unconstitutional.There has been a public outcry over some of the names that featured on the ANC lists for the National Assembly and some provincial legislatures. In their application, the three argue that there was no properly constituted branch general meeting . Despite being successfully nominated at lawfully convened BGMs as candidates, they expected to be on the Free State ANC ballot papers to be voted on at the provincial list conference, they said.
The respondents include the IEC, Free State provincial ANC executive, party secretary-general Ace Magashule and the ANC. The applicants allege that the matter was taken up with NEC members Barbara Creecy of the ANC's national list appeals committee and its chair Nkosazana Dlamini-Zuma.
