JOHANNESBURG - Member of the African National Congress (ANC) National Executive Committee Senzo Mchunu says the party is not leaving anything to chance as it sets out to woo back voters in what was once its stronghold in KwaZulu-Natal.
Mchunu visited Wembezi in northern KZN on Sunday at the start of 'Asiye Ekhaya' campaign to regain party supporters.
The ANC suffered a massive defeat in the 2024 general elections, losing its majority in KZN to Jacob Zuma's MK Party.
Its electoral muscle has been on the decline across the country.
Mchunu said the ANC cannot afford to accept defeat as parties make early preparations for next year’s local government elections.
"Even though we were not stable for a long time and we lost, people on their own have demonstrated in the recent past that they have love for the ANC, we're getting back to that and saying to them, 'we are here'."
