The team is selected from the 2 552 names from the branch nomination process for the national conference in Johannesburg. The 80 members were announced earlier by head of the party’s Electoral committee, Kgalema Motlanthe following the party’s national conference which adjourned on Tuesday at NASREC in Johannesburg.VIDEO: Inclusion of young people in ANC leadership structures – Bongani Mahlangu.
