24 June 2019
Natasha Mazzone is being touted as the front runner to replace DA chief whip John Steenhuisen who is set to become the party's federal executive chairperson
Steenhuisen confirmed to News24 on Thursday that party members were lobbying him to stand for the position of federal executive chairperson as James Selfe prepares to vacate the post in October.
Earlier this month, DA leader Mmusi Maimane announced that Selfe was stepping down from the position to head up its governance unit from October.
Selfe, who has held the position for 19 years, has been tasked with supporting DA governments to ensure that they deliver more effectively.
