ANC Youth League Calls for Age Limits in Leadership, Sparking Party Debate

ANC Youth League president Collen Malatji has ignited controversy by pushing for the exclusion of older leaders from top positions in the party and government. Speaking at a Youth Day event in Soweto, Malatji argued that South Africa needs fresh leadership, stating, “Those who led in 1994 cannot be expected to still drive the country in 2025.”

His call for formal age limits has divided opinion, with some praising it as necessary for renewal, while others view it as dismissive of the ANC’s veteran leaders.

“This isn’t just about age—it’s about skills and revitalizing the movement,” said ANC member and analyst Thuli Ndlovu. “But labeling elders as ‘pensioners’ could widen generational rifts.”

The proposal comes at a sensitive time for the ANC, which is preparing for major policy discussions amid declining voter support. While some fear the stance may alienate traditional backers, Malatji insists a leadership mix is crucial to connect with younger South Africans.

Senior ANC figures have not publicly responded, but insiders say the remarks have triggered private talks about succession planning and the party’s future direction.

As the ANC faces mounting political challenges, Malatji’s bold stance may reflect growing pressure within the party for a generational shift—one that could reshape its leadership in the years ahead.
