The ANC regional conference has elected Zandile Gumede as the eThekwini regional chairperson.

Gumede's slate took a clean sweep of all positions of the ANC's biggest region in the country:

  • Gumede, regional chairperson;
  • Thembo Ntuli, deputy chairperson;
  • Musa Nciki, regional secretary;
  • Nkosenhle Madlala, secretary; and
  • Zoe Shabalala, treasurer.

Gumede, a former eThekwini mayor, is standing trial in Durban's high court alongside 21 others accused of fraud, corruption and racketeering.

Gumede faces more than 2,000 charges related to a R320m solid waste project.

A fortnight ago, TimesLIVE reported that Gumede's supporters were saying she would land the post.
