ANC Gauteng Secretary TK Nciza who read out the PEC report said Makhura who has been a leader in Gauteng for the past 22 years said it is time he passed the baton as a leader of Gauteng.
“We engaged the structures, the PWC and the PEC. We engaged comrade David Makhura, and he said to deal with all the processes of the ANC.Nciza said the ANC will inform the people of Gauteng, once the process of a handover of power starts.Speaking during the media briefing,“I have a very specific wish, that the next State of the Province Address in February 2023 should be delivered by the leader the ANC has identified to lead the provincial government.
“I haven’t threatened the leadership with a resignation. They have not asked me to resign either. The ANC leadership and I are on the same page about everything, including lifestyle audits,” Makhura said.
