He is currently a serving member of the African National Congress (ANC) National Executive Committee (NEC), and had been such since December 2007. He has served in the NEC’s Health and Education Sub-Committee since that time.
After the unbanning of the ANC, Dr. Motsoaledi was elected into the Executive Committee of the ANC in Limpopo Province of South Africa, where he has served for the past 19 years. A student activist since 1979, he was elected into the National Executive of the Student Organisation (AZASO) in 1981.

Dr Motsoaledi became a leader in the United Democratic Front (UDF) in 1983, and has been a very active member in the activities of the then banned African National Congress (ANC) since 1981.
Dr Motsoaledi has served in various portfolios as a Member of the Executive in the Province of Limpopo, South Africa. He was the first Executive of the Province to address the transformation agenda of the democratic government in 1994. This included the amalgamation of five apartheid-created administrations into one Provincial Administration.
