Mbalula Threatens Investigations to Curb ANC Information Leaks

  • ANC secretary-general Fikile Mbalula has warned party leaders of potential investigations to trace and punish those leaking sensitive information.
  • Mbalula emphasized that leaks harm party unity and fuel opposition narratives, pushing for stricter control over internal information.
  • Analysts suggest that Mbalula’s crackdown signals a shift toward tighter leadership, though it risks fostering mistrust within the party.

ANC secretary-general Fikile Mbalula has issued a stern warning to ANC leaders, threatening forensic investigations to identify those responsible for leaking confidential information to the media and opposition parties. His announcement reflects a broader effort to tighten control over party communications and address the damaging impact of recent leaks on the ANC’s credibility.

Speaking during a closed ANC national executive committee (NEC) meeting, Mbalula expressed frustration over the steady flow of internal discussions and strategic plans being revealed to the public. “We can’t continue with this situation where sensitive party information is exposed, weakening our position and fueling the opposition’s narrative,” he stated. “If forensic investigations are required to locate the culprits, we will pursue them.” Recent high-profile leaks, including details on policy discussions and internal conflicts, have raised questions about unity within the party and provided opposition groups with material to critique ANC leadership.

Mbalula emphasized that curbing leaks is essential to restoring discipline and cohesion. He argued that these breaches not only hinder the ANC’s effectiveness in governance but also threaten the party’s ability to present a united front to the public. “Our focus should be on addressing the country’s challenges, not dealing with the fallout from reckless leaks,” he added.

The prospect of forensic investigations has sparked some concern within the ANC, with some members fearing it may create a climate of mistrust and surveillance. Nonetheless, Mbalula insists such measures are necessary to protect the party’s integrity, warning that those found responsible for leaking information could face serious consequences, including possible expulsion from the ANC.

Political analysts view Mbalula’s response as a signal of the ANC’s shift toward stricter internal control as the party faces mounting pressures. “This move reflects an attempt to consolidate leadership and reassert discipline,” noted one analyst. As the ANC gears up for the 2024 general elections, Mbalula’s emphasis on internal stability will be critical to maintaining the party’s competitive edge. However, whether his firm stance on leaks will unite or further divide the ANC remains to be seen.
