Ruling party's elective conference is in Mangaung next month and just before the event, news of failure of the two provinces in meeting their nomination deadlines has come up, which the national executive committee (NEC) of the African National Congress said will decide on Monday how to handle them.

"We have completed 10 now of the 12 provincial nomination conferences. There are two outstanding - Limpopo and the Western Cape. We will be dealing with those today (Monday)", ANC secretary-general Gwede Mantashe told SAfm on Monday.

The next news that came on Monday morning was the confirmation from the North West over its support to President Jacob Zuma for another term. According to reports, most of the provinces have nominated Zuma and conferences are just the result of some factional discords.

Sources have confirmed that few disruptions occurred on Friday night in ANC in Limpopo following which it has now cancelled its provincial general council. On the other hand, Western Cape party adjourned its provincial general council due to some logistical delays like the verification of branch delegates etc, announcements of which came early on Saturday morning and that too without endorsing any of its candidates.
