ANC Limpopo provincial secretary Vhamusanda Reuben Madadzhe said the party had engaged robustly and an early elective conference would give the province ample time to work on its local government election with a new political structure in place.

The term of office for the provincial executive committee (PEC), Madadzhe said, comes to an end in June 2026.

The announcement of an early PEC conference has since ignited hot debate about which ANC members in the province are eligible to replace Stan Mathabatha as party provincial chair.

The Citizen can reveal that only two names are being touted for Mathabatha's replacement.
