Clock is ticking: KZN ANC launches election day clock ahead of May 8
With just 50 days to go before the highly anticipated May 8 general election‚ the ANC in KwaZulu-Natal officially unveiled an election day countdown clock outside its provincial headquarters in Durban on Tuesday.
It is aimed at mobilising support for the ANC in the province: the ruling party has set its sights on retaining KwaZulu-Natal and on a decisive victory at national level.
ANC provincial chair Sihle Zikalala told a crowd of party supporters who braved the scorching heat to witness the launch of the countdown clock that the ANC would win the province and SA on May 8.
"There is no organisation that has a plan that is better than the ANC. We have done a lot in the past 25 years when the ANC was in government. Today we are launching the countdown watch and it means we will be mobilising each and every person to vote for the ANC‚" he said.
