Only way for ANC to regain public trust is through decisive action-ANCYL
ANC Youth League (ANCYL) president Collen Malatji has called on President Cyril Ramaphosa to fire all incompetent ANC ministers and ANC-mayors who are failing to deliver basic services.
Speaking at a media briefing on Wednesday at Luthuli House, Malatji said the only way for the ANC to regain public trust was through decisive action against nonperforming officials.
His comments come as political parties gears up for the upcoming 2026 local government elections
“We are calling on President Cyril Ramaphosa to decisively fire all ANC ministers that are not implementing resolutions,” Malatji said.
“We want the ANC to decisively remove all the mayors, anybody else who is deployed by the African National Congress on behalf of South Africa.”
The country is battling with ongoing service delivery failures, including water shortages, power outages, poor sanitation and infrastructure, potholes, sewer spills among others.
Malatsi added that ministers serving in the Government of National Unity (GNU) and mayors in ANC-run municipalities who have failed to deliver services should be shown the door.
