Mbeki campaigns for the ANC, saying the party has recognised it made mistakes
23 April 2019
Former president Thabo Mbeki says it would have been dishonest of him to campaign for the ANC in previous years while it was "veering off course".
Mbeki was speaking at the Rand Easter Show on Tuesday afternoon, while campaigning for the ANC ahead of elections next month.
Mbeki started off by referring to the ANC’s manifesto and lauded the section where it admits to having made mistakes.
"For many years, as you will recall, we have had different approaches to issues. People have been saying that we [ANC] have a good story to tell," Mbeki said.
