They want Ndlovu as chair, Mashilo as deputy chair, Chirwa as secretary, Ntshalintshali as deputy secretary and Msibi as treasurer.
Other contestants for the position of provincial chairperson are Premier Refilwe Mtshweni-Tsipane, Lucky Ndinisa and Peter Nyoni…
The ANCWL says they will support Mtshweni-Tsipane to be an additional member in the PEC but not in the top 5.
The ANCYL on the other hand says they will support Ndumiso Mokako, Tim Mashele, Sam Masango, Mpumi Hlophe, Cathy Mkhuma, Desmond Moela, Trisha Singh and Mantoa Motloung as additional members in the PEC.
“We believe that this leadership we are nominating and supporting will have the required political zeal to fulfil all those demands from young people,” the ANCYL said in a statement.
