Former president Jacob Zuma has criticised the party’s leaders for failing to implement its programme of action. Zuma participated in a panel discussion on the ANC Youth League (ANCYL) in Sophiatown, Johannesburg on Thursday evening.
While he made no mention of current ANC president Cyril Ramaphosa, he spoke of the importance of having a leader who agrees with the party’s programme of action. His comments come on the back of a recent public spat between ANC leaders, mostly on Twitter, about a resolution to expand the mandate of the South African Reserve Bank (SARB).
The public fallout was precipitated by the party’s secretary general Ace Magashule’s announcement that the national executive committee (NEC) had resolved to expand the mandate of the Reserve Bank, earlier this month.
Last week, Ramaphosa used his State of the Nation Address (SONA) to defend the SARB’s independence, saying it should work without fear, favour or prejudice.
