African National Congress (ANC) President Cyril Ramaphosa says his party is unfazed by predictions that it could dip below 46% in the Local Government Elections.

Pollsters have put the Democratic Alliance (DA) ahead of the ANC in at least six metros.

Ramaphosa says the ANC will get an outright majority across the country in next week Wednesday’s elections.

He was speaking to SABC News during his election campaign in Mamelodi, east of Pretoria on Monday afternoon.
