The African National Congress ANC has rejected a decision by its provincial chairperson in Limpopo, Stan Mathabatha, to step aside from his position.
Mathabatha communicated his decision in a letter to ANC Secretary-General Fikile Mbalula dated Monday, 1 September 2025.
This decision is motivated by the concerning misconduct and lack of ANC values that I have observed within the organisation in this province, particularly in relation to the processes towards and conduct within the conferences of the Vhembe and Waterberg regions, he wrote.
