# COPE has welcomed the ANC Secretary-General Fikile Mbalula and ANC Youth League President Collen Malatji’s admissions regarding the 2007 Polokwane conference, which elevated Jacob Zuma. The party’s Pakes Dikgetsi says this vindicates COPE’s founding opposition to Zuma’s rise, and the subsequent state capture, corruption, and institutional damage. Dikgetsi says COPE positions itself as a principled, transparent alternative, calling on citizens and professionals to support a political movement prioritising integrity, accountability, and the public interest:
