JOHANNESBURG - African National Congress (ANC) Gauteng chairperson Panyaza Lesufi says the province is pleased that the party's National Executive Committee (NEC) has taken its time to evaluate its poor performance in the previous elections.
On Monday, the ANC announced its decision to reconfigure the leadership structures of Gauteng and KwaZulu-Natal.
This follows the ANC's poor electoral performance in the two provinces which saw it lose its outright majority in both regions.

Speaking on the Clement Manyathela show on Tuesday, Lesufi said the NEC's decision will go a long way in helping the provinces turn things around.
"So for the National Executive Committee, which is the highest decision-making body of the ANC to take almost three days, to say let's evaluate performance, of say Gauteng and KZN. Let's check what went wrong, let's check what kind of support we need to give them, to me it's pleasing."
