The leader of the party in the province, Mr. Collin Sedibe, said they are aware of the concerns raised by the national leadership. “After receiving the letter from the national leadership, we have already convened as the provincial executive committee where we were tightening the loose screws and identifying the loopholes which are hindering growth in our party.
