Africa-Press – South-Africa. <\/strong><\/span>President Cyril Ramaphosa’s quest for a second term as ANC president received a shot in the arm as his ally Mandla Ndlovu was elected chairperson of the party in Mpumalanga, the ANC\u2019s biggest voting bloc at its national conference.<\/p>\n

Ndlovu won the hotly contested race against Deputy President David Mabuza’s ally Lucky Ndinisa. Ndlovu received 440 votes while Ndinisa received 278 votes.<\/p>\n

In March, Ndlovu – who at the time was the Mpumalanga convener after the provincial executive committee was turned into a provincial task team when its tenure expired – endorsed Ramaphosa, saying he should avail himself if structures asked him to stand for a second term.<\/p>\n

Speedy Mashilo received 505 votes to become deputy chairperson, while David Nhlabathi managed only 209 votes.<\/p>\n

Muzi Chirwa was elected provincial secretary after defeating Pat Mgomane. Chirwa received 487 votes and Mgomane 224.<\/p>\n

Lindiwe Ntshalintshali, who was the only woman nominated for a top five position, was elected deputy secretary, having defeated Charles Ndlovu.<\/p>\n

Double murder accused Mandla Msibi was voted in as treasurer after defeating Norah Mahlangu.<\/p>\n
