ANC Western Cape says it won’t announce its premier candidate before 8 May
CAPE TOWN – The Western Cape African National Congress on Thursday said it would not announce its premier candidate before the 8 May general elections.“That practice was stopped by the ANC in order for us to first secure the victory. We are not running on personality, but issues, and it’s working for us,” he said.Rasool said the party was confident it would take back the provincial legislature.
“With 12 days to go, I think our game plan in this election that the ANC has followed has certainly produced the kind of result in the Western Cape that we wanted to have,” Rasool said.“We have run an issue-based campaign and in our interaction with people across the province we have been able to understand the impact on people.”
On Workers Day, next week Wednesday, the ANC Western Cape is expected to hold its final rally ahead of the elections.
