Duduzile Zuma-Sambudla, a daughter of former president Jacob Zuma, has criticized Zweli Mkhize and others, stating they should refrain from using her father’s name in their statements. This comes after the presidential candidate criticized Zuma’s treatment and claimed that the violence in July 2021 happened as a result of how the ANC leaders handled his incarceration.
Mkhize was speaking to a local ANC organization while running for president in KwaNyuswa, Durban. “The nation must be aware of the suffering we endured as a result of Msholozi’s failures. We all need to be aware of the delicate issues surrounding the Zuma situation.
They caused severe damage to the KwaZulu-Natal community. The fury was sparked by that, he claimed. Zuma-Sambudla appeared to infer that Mkhize was a wolf in sheep’s clothing in response to his remarks. “Cdes (comrades) must not bother us with their presence. Conference season doesn’t cause us to forget things, she insisted. “We can identify you because we can see you. If you’re a member of the MF and you want to be considered for positions, don’t mention my father.” Mkhize is reportedly one of the contenders for the ANC’s presidency in 2022.The quest for positions in heating up ahead of December elective conference
According to him, the role calls for someone who is “younger and more enthusiastic,” and he added that he wouldn’t accept it just for the sake of accepting. “Everyone will understand that I don’t want to be the vice president. I believe that the vice president should be a younger, more vivacious individual who is also taken into consideration for succession. I am old,” Mantashe declared. “I’ll retire as well when the president does. Why should I pursue a position just for its own sake? Ronald Lamola, minister of justice and correctional services, told TimesLIVE that the ANC needs younger leaders in the top six positions.

“In actuality, the top six must have a mix of generations. In order for us to revitalize the ANC in terms of ideas and leadership, there needs to be fresh talent and a synthesis of different generations. Lamola declared that if branches asked him to run for the ANC deputy presidency, he would resign from his current position. According to him, “The ANC is a party of procedures, and we have to accept the processes that the various branches will undertake to steer that process.” “We don’t have a history of disobeying buildings’ calls. We must let the structures take control of that process.
