The DA Eastern Cape held South Africa’s first-ever virtual political congress on 29 August 2020 and elected Cllr Nqaba Bhanga as Provincial Leader and Andrew Whitfield, MP, as Provincial Chairperson.
Two Deputy Leaders – Chantel King, MP, and Bobby Stevenson, MPL – and three Deputy Chairpersons – Yusuf Cassim, MPL, Vicky Knoetze, MPL, and Cllr Wonga Potwana – were also elected.
The following members have now been appointed to the PEC:
- Provincial Spokesperson – Mlindi Nhanha, MP

We congratulate the members on their appointments and thank the outgoing members for their sterling work and dedication to the party. We trust that the newly appointed members will serve the DA well in their positions.
Regards
Andrew Whitfield, MP
