Voters will come back to the ANC, 'their natural home' – Ramaphosa
14 December 2018
President Cyril Ramaphosa believes the majority of South Africans will "come back to the ANC, their natural home" ahead of the 2019 elections, he said on Thursday.
Speaking to Radio 702 talk show host Xolani Gwala about the ANC garnering only 53.59% in the 2014 elections, he said he was "confident that we will not get below 50%".
"In fact, we are going to even top the 2014 numbers, go way beyond," he insisted.
"The ANC is renewing itself. Some of the reasons why people walked away from the ANC was because of what we were going through. They can see we are in the process of renewal and renewal is something people love.
