Cape Town - The ANC could be officially asked to go into an early elective conference after the shock of the local government elections.
This is according to its chairperson, Baleka Mbete, speaking at the 33rd commemoration of the formation of the anti-apartheid group the United Democratic Front (UDF) in Cape Town, yesterday.
She said this proposal might be raised at a National Executive Committee (NEC) planned for September.
Mbete added the party may have been humiliated to some extent during the 3 August elections, and did recognise that it needed to rebuild the party.
