WATCH: Thousands expected as ANC launches election manifesto
Updated | By Gaopalelwe Phalaetsile
The Moses Mabida stadium in KwaZulu-Natal is a sea of colour and excitement as thousands of African National Congress (ANC) supporters gather for the launch of the party’s election manifesto.

This launch also forms part of the ANC 107 birthday celebration.
The party expects over 80 000 people to listen to President Cyril Ramaphosa, who’ll set out the party’s vision for the future of South Africa
After months driving the ‘Thuma Mina’ campaign across the country, under the banner of a united ANC, the party aims to win an overwhelming majority in the national and provincial elections in May.
Ramaphosa was expected to reveal manifesto at 11:h00. However, chairperson Gwede Mantashe announced that the programme would be delayed by two hours.
