ANC gathers, let the talks begin
ANC members from across the country have descended on Nasrec in Johannesburg for Friday's official opening of the ANC's much-anticipated and talked about national conference. What does the ANC look like going into this conference, does it matter and what does it mean for the ordinary South African? In the first episode of ANC 2022: Nasrec Reloaded, Head of News at Kagiso Media Radio, Marius van der Walt, puts it all into perspective.
South Africa is about to head into another ANC national conference where the governing party will elect new leadership and thrash out plans to solve the country's myriad of crises.
Issues of load shedding, crime, gender-based violence, unemployment, lack of economic growth are some of the concerns keeping South Africans up at night.
Will the conference solve any of these? Probably not.
Is it something you should care about? Absolutely.
What the 4 500 delegates do and say during the next five days matters to you and me - directly and indirectly.
The Jacaranda FM News team brings you a brand new JacPod original daily podcast about the conference.
In this limited series, we will put into perspective all the developments, keep you up to date with everything that happened and most importantly, what all this means for you and the future of our country.
