ANC North West chairperson, Supra Mahumapelo, says he has received a mandate from his constituency, requesting a re-vote of the entire newly elected top leadership.
"If people are contesting the outcome of the election, they must do it politically and understand the risks if a re-vote is demanded. You can't just call a re-vote or recount of one position because you don't know who voted how. This was a secret ballot.
