Mashatile says ANC will not dissolve PEC in KZN

African National Congress (ANC) Deputy President Paul Mashatile has confirmed that the party’s Provincial Executive Committee in KwaZulu-Natal will not be dissolved.

Mashatile was addressing the crowd in KwaMpumuza, Pietermaritzburg, as part of his campaign efforts ahead of the by-election scheduled for next week

Mashatile says it is time for recovery because KwaZulu-Natal was not the only province where support for the ANC decreased in the 29 May general elections.

“We don’t want to blame KZN or GP, we are reflecting ourselves as national leadership. We see this period as the time for recovery and time to cover lost ground rather than blaming one another. I know many people were saying we are calling KZN because we want to dissolve the PEC, that is not the case, we are not dissolving anyone. We are engaging and coming up with plans.”
