South Africa election: Mbeki promises to rid ANC of 'rotten apples': South Africa's former president hits out at corruption within the governing party.
bbc.com/news/articles/cd18rkxx64no
Quick Glance: Support for South Africa's ANC around 40% before elections
- An Ipsos poll revealed that support for South Africa's governing African National Congress (ANC) has dropped to just over 40%, weeks before an election that could bring about significant political change.
- While the ANC is still expected to secure the most votes on May 29, falling below 50% would require seeking coalition partners to govern, marking the first such alliance since Nelson Mandela led the party to power 30 years ago.
- The survey was based on face-to-face interviews with 2,545 registered voters across all nine provinces in March and April, boasting a margin of error of 1.9% at a 95% confidence level.
- The poll also highlighted rising voter discontent due to issues like unemployment, corruption, crime, and poor services, with the ANC considering potential coalition partners such as the economically liberal DA and the far-left Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF).

Quick Glance: Court Rejects Delayed ANC Bid to Block Use of MK Trademark by Zuma's MK Party
- The KwaZulu-Natal High Court has dismissed the ANC’s bid to prohibit Jacob Zuma’s MK party from using the names and symbols of its disbanded anti-apartheid military wing.
- The judgment handed down allows the recently-established MK party, led by former president Jacob Zuma, to use the 'uMkhonto we Sizwe' name and symbols.
- The judgment highlighted that the ANC only considered the consequences of the name and symbols' use after Zuma publicly declared his support for the MK party.
- The court deemed the ANC's delayed application as 'self-created' due to the responsibility falling on party secretary general Fikile Mbalula to ensure timely action.
