The visit forms part of long-standing African custom and tradition, which requires political organisations to consult and inform traditional leadership before holding activities within their areas of jurisdiction.
ANC Leadership to Engage Traditional Leaders
Following the meeting with Kgosi Pilane, ANC leaders are also expected to hold engagements with the broader traditional leadership of the North West province.
These consultations are set to form a key part of the party’s build-up to the January 8 celebrations, which remain a significant date on the ANC’s political calendar.
