CAPE TOWN - The ANC maintains that South Africans still have confidence in the party.
This is despite failing to secure a majority vote in the 2024 general elections.
The party's second deputy secretary-general, Maropene Ramokgopa says there are plans to strengthen local government and improve service delivery.
The party has not been in control of the Western Cape for a very long time.
Ramokgopa says this has seen issues such as service delivery go down to a very sad state.
