African National Congress spokesperson Zizi Kodwa used Twitter on Sunday to express support for Deputy President Cyril Ramaphosa to lead the ANC.
Ramaphosa is contesting for the top party job against Nkosazana Dlamini-Zuma, the former chairperson of the African Union Commission.
Kodwa said that Ramaphosa would “inspire hope” for the party.
“Am casting my vote for comrade Ramaphosa for ANC president, whatever happens I trust he will restore confidence and inspire hope. It is early hours but it’s worth waiting,” Kodwa tweeted.
