Mkhize, the former Health Minister, is going up against incumbent party President, Cyril Ramaphosa, for the top position.Booysen was speaking on the sidelines of the ANC’s 55th National Conference, underway at Nasrec in Johannesburg.
“If you come to a conference and you check whether there is an upwelling of support and whether you have a chance to make it or supersede Zweli Mkhize, I think if they know they are not going to make it then rather do the seemingly wise thing to step aside with dignity and also not split the vote. I have little doubt that that would have been the conclusion that she reached.”
That's obvious. Mkhize is the focal point for all those who want to get rid of Ramaphosa. Question is: What is Mkhize's programme, except being anti-Ramaphosa? And: There is a bit of the bitter-bad taste of revenge, too. maggsnaidu BooysenS2
