The ANC sets strict rules for 2026 mayoral candidates, requiring experience, education, gender diversity, and ethics to fight corruption.
The ANC has released new guidelines for selecting mayoral candidates ahead of the 2026 local elections, requiring at least 70% of municipal candidates to have prior government experience and mandating tertiary education and three years of legislative or council experience for metro mayoral contenders.
National officials will appoint final candidates after interviews, with at least two of three recommended candidates being women and current first-term female mayors automatically included.
The party prohibits campaign spending on branding or media, bans donations to fund campaigns, and will conduct lifestyle audits if concerns arise.
Candidates must have no recent disciplinary actions or criminal records, and no one may serve three consecutive terms as mayor.
The rules aim to ensure qualified, ethical leadership and combat corruption.
