BLOEMFONTEIN - Former president Thabo Mbeki has travelled to the Free State to assist his party, the African National Congress (ANC), in rebuilding following maladministration by Ace Magashule, the suspended former Secretary-General.

The ANC invited Mbeki for a three-day visit to assess the damage done by Magashule and to brainstorm methods the party could use to rebuild and renew its internal structures, many of which have fallen victim to factionalism.

ANC's hopes for renewal

According to TimesLIVE, the renewal project is led by the ANC's Interim Provincial Committee (IPC), headed by Mxolisi Dukwana. The Provincial Executive Committee was disbanded due to their alleged loyalty to Magashule.

The Free State ANC is hopeful that Mbeki will give them the help they need to achieve their goals for the party's future. Sisi Ntombela, the Deputy President of the ANC Women's League, expressed hope that the party will be united in the province soon, SABC News reports.

“We really must unite the ANC in the province and I think everyone is ready and prepared. You are aware that we are from local government elections, even our own people have said it very clear, that we must unite and be one because we must save the ANC," Ntombela said.
