The African National Congress(ANC), announces the victory of President Cyril RAMAPHOSA, at the head of the party, this Monday, December 19, 2022, in Johannesburg.
This is a second mandate taken despite the corruption scandal, that has flavored his life. And the failure of the impeachment procedure in parliament.

At the head of the party, victory is assured. Yesterday, the heated debate in parliament did not pull the teeth of the “buffalo”. Today, the adversity of ZWELI MKHIZE, former Minister of Health, could not tear the horns of the buffalo. 2,476 votes against 1,897 is the last score obtained in favor of the President of the Republic of South Africa, Cyril RAMAPHOSA.
SIPHO MTHEMBU: “We are disappointed”
For the delegate of the Johannesburg and Pretoria region, SIPHO MTHEMBU, this is a disappointment. Because, he believes, only “ZWELI MKHIZE could bring essential changes”. However, a contrary attitude can be observed on the side of former minister ZWELI MKHIZE. Because, for the latter, failure did not bring a smile. His rise on the rostrum with a smile in further testimony. He congratulated the winner by giving him the hug. The latter distributing the handshakes all smiles.
Is this new proof that, despite the “Phala-Phala” affair, Cyril RAMAPHOSA will have been able to retain the confidence of his “comrades” in the ANC?
