Statement on the new ANC leadership: No time for complacency

Good Governance Africa calls on the re-elected ANC leadership to move beyond internal divisions and address critical national challenges, specifically the energy crisis and the need for stable coalition governance ahead of the 2024 elections.

• The 55th National Conference of the ANC showed significant internal divisions, with only three of the new top seven leaders receiving at least 50% of the delegate vote share.
• South Africa faces critical governance challenges that the ANC leadership must address, including corruption, political instability, and an energy crisis, the latter of which was highlighted by the resignation of Eskom CEO André de Ruyter due to a reported lack of political support.
• The rapid erosion of electoral support for the ANC has led to unstable coalition governments at the municipal level, creating a need for a clear plan for stable coalitions at the national level before the 2024 elections.
