 ANC will retain parliamentary majority: SA's president


South Africa's President Cyril Ramaphosa says ANC party will retain its parliamentary majority in May 2024 elections.


South Africa's President Cyril Ramaphosa has expressed confidence that the African National Congress (ANC) will retain its parliamentary majority in the May 29, 2024 elections, even as opinion polls show that the ruling party has lost its popularity.
