Following the conference, Morero wrote to the provincial leadership expressing his dissatisfaction with the process, while his supporters also lodged their own complaints. Following his defeat at the conference, Morero was redeployed by the ANC to its provincial task team, where he was appointed to head a committee responsible for holding mayors accountable. “The leadership of the ANC then decided that perhaps my skills and expertise were still required and they appointed me at the provincial level with two tasks: first, the execution of the election campaign, and second, preparing the provincial ANC for its provincial conference next year,” Morero said. Morero said he was working well with the regional leadership and met with them whenever necessary. Asked why South Africans should vote for the ANC in the upcoming local government elections, Morero said the party’s record of transforming the country should not be overlooked.
