The ANC in the Eastern Cape has postponed the party's elective conference for the province which was scheduled to start on Friday.

The party said in a media statement that a meeting held on Tuesday resolved to reschedule the 9th provincial conference as the party was still "attending to internal disputes and the verification report was yet to be signed".

"The ANC Eastern Cape Provincial Working Task Team (PWTT) on Tuesday, 19th April 2022, to make an assessment of the work in preparation for the 9th Provincial Conference as previously resolved," said the party in a statement."

In making such an assessment, it became apparent that some of the disputes are still being attended to by the National Dispute Resolution Committee (NDRC) and the verification report has therefore not yet signed by the acting secretary general.

"The PWTT therefore resolved to reschedule the ANC Eastern Cape 9th Provincial Conference to a date to be announced by the Provincial Task Team, once satisfied that all outstanding matters have been attended to."
