Sydafrikas nationale disciplinærkomité forventes onsdag at præsentere sin beslutning om skæbnen for den detroniserede leder af partiets ungdomsliga, Julius Malema.
JOHANNESBURG: Lederen af ANC’s ungdomsliga risikerer at blive eksluderet af partiet onsdag, skriver den sydafrikanske avis Mail & Guardian.
On Wednesday morning, after rumours began to circulate that Malema’s time was up, deputy minister for science and technology Derek Hanekom, who headed up the National Disciplinary Committee (NDC), announced on Twitter that the committee was meeting today for final deliberations on the disciplinary measures to be taken against senior members of the ANC Youth League.
Three people dead
ANC Youth League president Julius Malema has urged strikers at the Impala Platinum mine in Rustenburg to negotiate a peaceful end to their labour dispute, which has left three people dead.
Hanekom tweeted: “The NDC is meeting today at Luthuli House for final deliberation on sanction, having listened to argument.”
“We will announce our finding when we have concluded our work and informed the charged members and the SG [secretary general of the ANC].”
He later released a statement indicating that the decision would be made on Wednesday afternoon.
“Having said we will inform the public of our decision, we will be releasing a statement in the late afternoon today, February 29 2012, after informing all the parties involved and the organisation on the matter, as informed by our constitution,” he said.
Expulsion likely
According to the New Age newspaper, sources within the ANC say it is likely that Malema would be expelled.
The paper reported that its sources within the ruling party said the decision be communicated by press release, rather than through a media conference, an indication that the ANC is not prepared to engage in discussions on the matter and that Malema’s appeals for the ANC to discuss their differences with the youth league further have fallen on deaf ears.
