Ramaphosa's popularity unmistakable as he begins his Siyanqoba speech

ELLIS PARK STADIUM/ORALNDO STADIUM - ANC president Cyril Ramaphosa arrived at Ellis Park Stadium on Sunday to cheers and waves from ANC supporters. As he entered the stadium, supporters shouted and ran towards the leader.

With the proceedings having kicked at the stadium for the ANC's final Siyanqoba rally ahead of the national election on Wednesday, the venue is almost full to capacity. Supporters started trickling into the stadium from 7am, and waited patiently for the president to arrive. Ramaphosa greeted all arms of the ANC, including the ANC Women's League and the MKMVA. Also in attendance at the rally was former Nigeria president Goodluck Jonathan, who Ramaphosa said was in SA as an election observer."We are not about to hand over Gauteng to anybody," Mantashe said.

ANC NEC member Ronald Lamola told Eyewitness News earlier on Sunday any attempts to recall ANC president Cyril Ramaphosa would be fought. “We are going to ensure that there is no one who is going to do anything to the president. The people of this country and ANC members are clear, they love the president,” Lamola said.There has been persistent speculation in the ANC that former president Jacob Zuma’s allies in the party plan to recall Ramaphosa during the organisation’s next national general council.“He’s going to finish his term, we will make sure. No one will do anything to the president.

Lots of empty seats I notice. ANC to lose votes

Among whom? The speeple in the stadium. Dont count me under that.

That stadium looks empty...may we have an aerial view of the place for transparency sake. Happy Sunday
