As part of its priority of renewal programme, the African National Congress (ANC) has launched new membership card geared to be rolled out countrywide to halt gate keeping tendencies which has the potential of destroying the party’s integrity and losing more followers.


The ANC unveiled its membership smart card at the party’s National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting at the Birchwood Hotel in Boksburg on Friday morning.


ANC President Cyril Ramaphosa said however more work must be done to rebuild the party although the card forms part of the organisation’s renewal programme.


He said the ANC must harness the opportunities of technology however we cannot rely on the membership card alone to rebuild the organisation.


Ramaphosa confirmed the membership smart card will also be used to access the party’s conference. 

“As an effective instrument of fundamental change. As we launch this new membership card, it is essential you do the organisation work to fully realise the renewal of the movement,” said Ramaphosa.

"Indeed, as one holds this membership card with one's picture on it, with very distinct pictures and a beautiful photograph of the founders of the ANC at the back. It makes it the most unique card in the world. I can safely say there is no card like this in the world."
