Johannesburg –Â With preparations currently underway for the ANC’s 110 anniversary celebration, the party’s big wigs will lead various activities across Limpopo province from today, 5 January.
The ruling party will commemorate their annual anniversary celebration at the Old Peter Mokaba stadium in Polokwane, Limpopo where the January 8 statement will be read by the party and the country’s President Cyril Ramaphosa.
The annual anniversary celebration of the African National Congress has been tradition since 1972 when the movement issued its first statement in exile formerly known as special statements relating to major events or issues at the time.
From 1972 the ANC only issued its next January 8 statement in 1979 dubbed the Year of the Spear and became a lifelong practice that has been maintained to date.
According to the party’s issued statement, the old machinery movement will once again use the occasion of its 110th Anniversary to reflect on the road that still lies ahead.
“As part of the build up activities, members of the National Executive Committee led by National Officials will descend to all regions of the province of Limpopo to engage with various sectors of society,” a statement read.
