FeesMustFall activist Mcebo Dlamini has been approached by several ANC branches for the position of the Youth League President.
Dlamini has expressed that he is ready to lead the governing party’s Youth League.
He is expected to stand as a presidential candidate for the coveted role, which has groomed many political leaders.
Recent media reports state that several branches like the eMalahleni, Hammanskraal and Amathole have expressed a desire for Dlamini to lead the party’s youth.
In a recent interview, Dlamini has said that there “isn’t any province that has not approached me.”
“When I looked at the number of people and branches, I couldn’t say no,” he is quoted as saying.
The ANCYL elective conference is set to be held from 18 to 21 October at the Nasrec Expo Centre in Joburg.
The conference has been postponed several times after outgoing president Collen Maine has been accused of trying to stop the conference from taking place.
Dlamini himself is facing multiple charges including public violence, assault, theft and damage to property relating to the 2016 FeesMustFall protest.
