Deputy President Kgalema Motlanthe will be ANC president, ANCYL deputy president Ronald Lamola said in Johannesburg on Monday.

“It is given comrades that the current deputy president of the ANC, comrade Kgalema, will one day become the president of the ANC,” Lamola said.

“It will be a generational error if he does not become the president. We will be rewriting the history of the African National Congress.”

Lamola was addressing the ANC Youth League’s Dr Mxolisi Majombozi branch at the University of the Witwatersrand.

He was reporting back on the league’s policy conference held in June, the league’s role, and reflecting on former president Nelson Mandela’s contribution to the struggle.
