ANC takes to the streets of Cape Town
The ANC is hosting what the party has dubbed a 'People’s Assembly' at the Grand Parade in Cape Town, as South Africa gears up for President Jacob Zuma’s State of the Nation Address.
“The People’s Assembly is a gathering of ANC supporters that have convened to hear President Zuma outline the interventions to fulfil our social contract with the masses of our people through the State of the Nation Address,” the party says.
