‘Apartheid still exists’ in Western Cape, Ramaphosa says as ANC eyes election victory [VIDEO]

President Cyril Ramaphosa highlighted the persistence of apartheid-era inequalities in the Western Cape during a campaign visit to Khayelitsha, Cape Town. Speaking at the Salvation Church of the Revival, Ramaphosa argued that township residents still face subpar housing, infrastructure, and services compared to wealthier suburbs.

The ANC leader pointed to neglected conditions, claiming that local authorities had failed to allocate funds for housing projects and that many homes remained in short supply. Ramaphosa emphasized that township communities should receive equal treatment and services comparable to those in suburban areas. Despite the ANC's decline in support during recent local elections, Ramaphosa expressed confidence that the party could secure significant gains at the upcoming polls, urging ANC supporters to participate in the voting process.
