Zuma must resign as SA president for ANC unity to happen in 2018 - stalwarts
Johannesburg - The stalwarts and veterans of the ANC have said in their "New Year's resolutions" that for the party to achieve unity, President Jacob Zuma had to resign as leader of the country.
The stalwarts shared their reflections for the party on the eve of the last day of 2017.
They congratulated Cyril Ramaphosa on his election as president of the ANC, saying they hoped his leadership would be a breath of fresh air. They said he would not have an easy road, given the challenges the ANC faced.
The group said that the unity which was talked about in 2017 needed to become a reality in 2018.
"It cannot be that difficult to see what our country sees is wrong with our movement," they said.
