No murderers, rapists or thieves...ANC draft policy sets bar for membership

[mojoman]

JOHANNESBURG - Murderers, rapists, robbers and sex offenders will not be considered for African National Congress (ANC) membership if the party’s proposed amendments come to pass.

Eyewitness News has seen a draft constitutional amendment document circulated to its branches.

The governing party plans to tighten its recruitment strategy in a bid to clean up its public image.

For the constitutional amendment to pass, it would need a two-thirds majority of support from ANC branches.

The first amendment in the governing party’s draft constitutional amendment document deals with criteria to be used when assessing aspirant members.

This forms part of the party’s plans to have better quality members and leaders amid a growing crisis within its ranks.

Dozens of members are embroiled in corruption scandals as well as other serious crimes.

Deadbeat parents will also not be let off the hook.

[Nerfherder]

So is this a ploy to get Zuma out of the ANC ? seems oddly focused on him

Dont be fooled, just a ploy so they can look back voting time and say they already started the process.

 

[Craig_]

Weird, if they put this in place will there be anyone left in the ANC?

 

[AstroTurf]

So ANC starting with 100% new members?

 

[Hemi300c]

Like this will ever happen because all the cases never come to finalization because the departments whom are supposed to finalize, prosecute, investigate and carry out justice are owned and ruled by the anc.

It's a no win situation for Sa and the honest people therein.

 

[OhYeah84]

...but the corrupt and morally bankrupt are ok...

 

[wbot]

No thieves??? They're now gonna kick out every anc member?

 

[Senor]

This means nothing. These people set up criminal networks and even after being removed from the public eye, they continue to pull strings and derive benefits from their networks.

 

[LCBXX]

EWN pretending that publicised ANC policies mean something.

 

[Quicks]

I think we are the only country with such a policy. This should be common sense, but the scum here E.g ANC. / EFF for them this is a joke actually.

This, we have a demockracy not a democracy..

The party hopes the amendments will help root out individuals who don’t share the ANC’s values but only seek to be career politicians.

Telling that they still consider Zuma part, nay an integral part, of the ANC..

I don't think it will apply to members who got in before the rue was passed, so the murderers, rapists and thieves who are already in the house should be safe.

 

[Jet-Fighter7700]

moving the goalposts I think,

as I think the ANC is the most corrupt, dishonest and ridiculous organization out there.

they will just play with the definitions freely.
