There is an invisible hand behind Registrar’s decision – Brebner

Civil Rights Activist Brebner Changala says there is an invisible hand behind the decision taken by the Registrar of Societies.

Chief Registrar of Societies Thandiwe Mhende issued a notice to political parties to direct them to hold meetings/ conventions as well as intra-party elections within 60 days from the date of its publication, to elect and replace office bearers and members of the party leadership to fill up existing vacancies among other requirements.

  1. Another idiotic pf style justification why its sbove the law. The societies Act applies to ALL with no exceptions. The Act DOES NOT require or direct any party to CHANGE its office bearers by just to have elections and submit names of the elected as per the law. If pfidiots want to continue with ecl, nobody’s stopping it. Go ahead elect him!
