*01 May 2009* *YCLSA Gauteng supports the name of Comrade Nomvula Mokonyane as Premier of Gauteng!*
The Young Communist League of South Africa in Gauteng province notes and welcomes the decision of ANC NEC to appoint Comrade Nomvula Mokonyane as its preferred Premier candidate for the province. As the YCLSA in Gauteng we do not doubt the decision taken by the ANC NEC to appoint Cde Mokonyane for the Premiership position. However, we note that there are those amongst our structures whose tongues are littered with malice which seeks to undermine and ridicule the decision of the NEC. We view their actions as reflection of political immaturity and ill discipline informed by personal interests and egos. It should be understood that to be the Provincial Chairperson of the ANC does not guarantee one an automatic ticket be the Premier. This should serve as a call to the Alliance leadership to formulate a structured discussion as we approach 2014 on deployments to key strategic centers of power and influence. It is our understanding as the YCLSA in Gauteng that Alliance formations are equal and any amongst these formations we can provide a President or Premier. We call on the structures of the ANC Alliance in the province to rally behind the decision of the NEC and defeat politically those who undermine the political authority of the NEC. When the ANC PEC submitted the three names to the NEC it made a statement that all the candidates were equally competent for the position to carry the task of the ANC with diligence including the Premiership. The YCLSA in Gauteng will continue to build a strong, united and progressive Alliance in the province as part of ensuring that the ANC led Alliance governments continues to meet the needs and demands of our people, especially the working class and the poor.
