ANCYL members call for disbandment of youth league leadership─── 15:00 Tue, 04 Jun 2019
African National Congress Youth League members said on Tuesday that they wanted the leadership of the Youth League disbanded.
Youth league members gathered at ANC headquarters Luthuli House in Johannesburg to deliver a memorandum which they said should be accepted by the ANC secretary general Ace Magashule.
The aggrieved members said they would wait outside Luthuli House until the leadership of the youth league was available to receive their memorandum.
"We are saying we need the SG to receive our memorandum. The term of the people occupying the leadership has expired and we are saying they must appoint a new structure that will take us to the 26th conference," said one of the protesting ANCYL members Revivalist Kolobe Mamabolo.
Among other grievances are that the ANCYL leadership is too old.
