The statement comes after the party’s treasurer-general Zweli Mkhize was heckled by ANC Youth League members in KwaZulu-Natal while addressing a memorial service for late struggle stalwart Ahmed Kathrada on Sunday.
Mkhize has called the youth league’s behaviour unacceptable and embarrassing and says they need to be educated politically.
He’s also apologised to all in attendance.
ANC spokesperson Khusela Sangoni says: “Memorial services and funerals are not the place where comrades should be expressing faction tendencies but rather use the solemn occasion to really memorise the memory of those who sacrificed so much for our country.”
