Matakin da wakilan suka dauka, ya zo ne a daidai lokacin da jam'iyar take fama da gwagwarmayar neman madafun iko tsakanin Bangarorinta daban daban da kuma zargin cin rashawa a cikinta. Bisa al'ada, shugaban jam'iyar ta ANC shine kuma zai zama dan takararta a zaben shugaban kasa na gaba a shekara ta 2014.

Ku bari mu rage tazarar dake akwai tsakanin shugabanni da sauran wakilai a jam'iyarmu. Wadannan dai sune kalmomin da shugaban Afirka ta kudu, Jacob Zuma ya fara amfani dasu, a jawabinsa na bude babban taro na 53 na jam'iyar dake mulki ta ANC gaban wakilai kimanin 4000. Mahalarta taron kuwa sun amsa kiran da yayi, inda suka dorawa masa nauyin aiwatar da wannan gagarumin aiki na hade kan jam'iyar. A kuri'ar da aka kada daga baya, wakilai 2978 ne suka goyi bayan ci gaba da kasancewar Zuma kan mukamin shugaban jam'iya, yayin da abokin adawarsa, kuma tsohon mataimakinsa, Kgalema Motlanthe ya tashi da kuri'u 991. Hakan dai ya sanya kyautata zaton cewar Jacob Zuman ne zai zama dan takarar jam'iyar ta ANC a zaben shugaban kasa na gaba na shekara ta 2014.

Rassan jam'iyar da kuma kungiyoyin mata da na matasa da suke masu karfin fadi aji ne a cikinta tun da farko sai da suka baiyana cikakken goyon bayada biyayyarsu a gareshi.
