ANC welcomes ANCYL clarification on national dialogue

# The ANC says it welcomes the clarification by the party’s Youth League and its support for the national dialogue. This comes after the Youth League criticised the national convention for the dialogue, saying it lacked youth involvement and was a tea party for friends. Government describes the dialogue as a people-led, society-wide process. The ANC says the role of the youth is to be robust and fearless in their engagement, but the Youth League remains politically guided by the party in advancing the collective interests of young people.
