16 February 2016
The ANC in the Western Cape would like to announce that Khaya Magaxa, currently acting Chairperson of the ANC in the Western Cape, is officially the New Leader of the Opposition of the Western Cape Provincial Legislature.
Magaxa replaces the Chairperson of the ANC, Cde Marius Fransman, until such time that all internal processes of the ANC are concluded. Khaya Magaxa is a brilliant mind with an energetic style, incisive wit with informed opinions.
He has influenced a generation of comrades, and has had a profound effect on the ANC as an organisation. He is stepping into this important position with the full confidence of the ANC and we are more than confident that he will hold the DA government accountable and will present the ANC as the only organisation capable of governing the Western Cape for all its residents.
