Motlanthe warns KZN ANC is effectively dying

# Former president Kgalema Motlanthe has warned that the ANC in KwaZulu-Natal is effectively dying, raising concerns about a broader organisational crisis. Motlanthe cited deep dysfunction and declining structures within the province due to internal instability. KZN dropped by 55.4-percent in 2019 and 17.6-percent in 2024 in provincial support. The warning comes as the party faces mounting pressure ahead of upcoming local government elections, with questions growing about its ability to rebuild and remain competitive.
