Johannesburg - ANC leaders plotted to disrupt the Youth League congress, its re-elected leader Julius Malema said on Sunday.
"We have defeated you, and we are still going to defeat you," an angry Malema said in his closing address to the conference in Midrand, Johannesburg.
He said some leaders went to the ANC's 2007 Polokwane conference on a mission to get African National Congress Youth League leaders out of the way for two years.
He claimed party leaders had tried to get league members to vote against his being re-elected ANCYL leader.
Malema singled out Mpumalanga and KwaZulu-Natal, saying its delegates had been instructed to vote differently at the four-day conference, where Malema retained his position during elections on Friday.
"Mpumalanga defied the order, some risked losing their jobs," he said.
KwaZulu-Natal delegates were offered R2 000 to vote for a preferred candidate, he claimed.
"People thought these delegates of KZN were willing to sell their soul."
Malema said Mpumalanga needed "proper leadership".
"We are asking proper politics. Mpumalanga must get proper leadership, we cannot be lead by people interfering in the affairs of youth."
