JOHANNESBURG - As delegates wait for the African National Congress’s (ANC) national conference to start at this hour, small groups can be seen huddled discussing the election process.
Saturday morning’s urgent national executive committee meeting delayed the start of the much-anticipated conference.
Delegates from the various provinces have been singing their way into the plenary session.
A short while ago, a large delegation from Limpopo made their way in singing “make way for our new leader [Cyril] Ramaphosa”.
Small groupings are quietly doing some last-minute strategising outside.
Delays in the registration processes have led to delegates arriving late.
One delegate from the North West says his branch wrapped up their registration early on Saturday morning.
Some of the small groups huddled there have been discussing the number of votes they believe they have in the bag for their preferred candidate.
It's ultimately these delegates on the ground whose votes decide who becomes the next ANC president
