The ANC Women’s League ANCWL regional elective conference for the Bojanala region in North West is concluding in Soshanguve, north of Pretoria, despite ongoing disputes regarding its organization. Members from various branches and subregions in Bojanala have expressed dissatisfaction with the conference preparations. The league’s provincial leadership appears to be proceeding with the regional conferences as planned. The change in venue from Rustenburg in North West to Soshanguve has raised concerns among some members, who plan to challenge it, arguing that holding the meeting outside its provincial jurisdiction is inappropriate. Additionally, unresolved disputes persist concerning members who felt unfairly treated during branch general meeting election processes, citing violations of ANC guidelines. Concerned members state their appeals regarding these disputes have not been addressed by the ANCWL provincial executive committee. Some members, who wished to remain anonymous, have described the gathering as illegitimate, unprocedural, and potentially unconstitutional. The conference was originally scheduled for March 28-29 but was postponed, with members from various subregions of Bojanala demanding that unresolved irregularities be addressed.
