“The ANC is well geared, well prepared to take the lives of our people further and better. All that remains now is the action, the implementation, which is what we are now going to focus on. We will focus on it because the ANC is renewing itself and once the ANC renews itself and unites itself, it really becomes a formidable force. A mighty force as it has always been,” said Ramaphosa.
