The Gauteng ANC has nominated deputy president Kgalema Motlanthe to take over as president of the ANC, it said on Friday.

Gauteng African National Congress spokesman Dumisa Ntuli said in an SMS that the province decided at its nomination conference on Thursday night to back Motlanthe over the incumbent, president Jacob Zuma.

Other branches around the country, as well as the ANC Youth League, have decided to nominate Motlanthe. He, however has not yet indicated whether he will accept the nominations.

The province chose to retain Gwede Mantashe as secretary-general.

Tokyo Sexwale was nominated for deputy president, Febe Potgieter for deputy secretary general, North West premier Thandi Modise for chairwoman and Gauteng ANC chairman Paul Mashatile for treasurer.

Is Mashatile that disparate? Even my 2 year old toddler can think better! It will take everybody but only a lunatic to see that Zuma has already won before the match can even start!?

Where is that something, hidden in a closet, that is so incriminating that there will be no possibility to escape from it ?

Of course there are countless ''something/s'' The 783 charges, Nkandlagate, Zumaville, Defiance of the 'Court'Order' and a 100% chances of resurrection the ''rape / shower'' case, seeing that it did not even go to appeal because Juju (now in captivity) wanted to ''kheel 4 da prisidunt''!

Well...up to now this master conman was quite able to defy justice on mere technicalities or clever side stepping of the issues.

I wonder who is, in his sobber mind dare to support this group of power-hungry Sexwale and Mashatile. Mashatile has demonstrated that he really need the position but one will wonder why they left out their friends Mathale and Malema on the list.

All lists for now are 'wishful thinking'. Imagine Comrade Jessie Duarte, both Tokyo & Mashatile, both Zuma & Mkhize, you name them, in the top six, Really.

In the greater scheme of things, it does not matter really which of the corrupt thieves wins in Manga-Manga. It will still be the same useless ANC.
