The party’s national spokesperson, Iphithule Maphosa, said the decision to postpone the elective congress was made by the National People’s Council (NPC) after taking note of the increasing coronavirus infections in the country. Said Maphosa:

> The NPC is the party‘s highest decision-making body, who between congress held a zoom meeting in July 11 to postpone the congress.

> The ZOOM conference was made up of clusters of NPC members in Bulawayo, Harare, South Africa and the United Kingdom.

Maphosa added that the situation would be reviewed in October 2020.
