ANC BRANCH members in the Northern Cape are heading to court to interdict the upcoming ANC provincial conference and to challenge the outcome of the Frances Baard regional conference that was held this past weekend.
During the Frances Baard regional conference, ANC regional chairperson Mangaliso Matika was elected to serve a second term.
Neo Mase was elected as the deputy regional chairperson, along with regional secretary Wende Marekwa, deputy regional secretary Mock Lehoko Mocumi and regional treasurer Nondumiso Buda.
