Mbalula Rejects Succession Talks, Backs Mashatile As Next Anc President

ANC secretary general Fikile Mbalula has dismissed speculation about his presidential ambitions, saying that it is premature to discuss succession because he was focused on finishing his term in office.

Speaking at the Friedrich Naumann Foundations freedom dialogue event last week, Mbalula addressed the growing conversation about the partys future leadership, saying that Deputy President Paul Mashatile is next in line for consideration.
