ANCYL leadership sacked?

Cape Town - There reports that the South Africa's ruling party ANC has disbanded its youth wing NEC.  The move may possibly be seen as a purge of those who disagreed with President Jacob Zuma, The Mail and Guardian reports

The decision to disband the ANC Youth League national executive committee has come a few weeks after it was assured by the ANC top six it would not be disbanded.

Immediately after the decision was taken, the youth league's acting president Ronald Lamola and deputy secretary general Kenetswe Mosenogi were asked to leave, as they were no longer regarded as part of the NEC.

The ANC's Clayson Monyela confirmed the events on twitter, as did Floyd Shabangu.
