Daily Sun (May 5 2014) - POLITICAL parties were out in full force at the weekend, making their final appeals for the precious votes of the country's citizens. On Wednesday, voters will go to the polling stations as they did 20 years and 10 days ago. ONCE AGAIN, THE PEOPLE OF MZANSI WILL DECIDE THE FUTURE OF THE COUNTRY.
At FNB Stadium in Soweto, a cheering and ululating crowd welcomed President Jacob Zuma as he started his election address.
It seemed Zuma had received the all important endorsement from ANC members when they rose to their feet and sang "uZuma lo".
But as he spoke a large portion of the 100 000-strong crowd started drifting towards the exits and halfway through his speech, the president was already speaking to half the crowd that had welcomed him.
Zuma said the ANC will continue focusing on the five priorities: education, health, rural development, work creation and fighting corruption.
He said there will be an emphasis on the provision of housing.
