ANC: Latest news, protests and what to watch now

The African National Congress still shapes life across South Africa — from national policy to local service delivery. If you care about politics, road protests, municipal failures or election shifts, this tag gathers the most relevant stories and quick reads so you don’t miss the facts that matter.

On this page you’ll find straight reporting, short analyses and on-the-ground updates. We focus on concrete events: protests that shut highways, debates over service delivery, party leadership moves, and how ANC decisions affect everyday life. Expect plain language, useful context, and links to full articles.

What you’ll find under the ANC tag

- Breaking reports on protests and disruptions, like Diepkloof road blockades and community unrest.

- Coverage of service delivery stories — water, sanitation, housing — that often spark political action.

- Analysis of party moves, faction fights, and election developments that change local power balances.

- Local case studies and national trends: how one township’s problems point to larger governance issues.

We don’t do rumours. Each story links to primary events, official statements or eyewitness reports so you can judge the situation yourself.

How to use this tag and stay updated

Want the fastest updates? Subscribe to our alerts and follow the ANC tag feed. Use these quick search tips inside the site:

- Search the tag plus a town name (for example: ANC Diepkloof) to find local stories fast.

- Add keywords like “service delivery”, “protest” or “leadership” to narrow results.

- Use date filters to track how a situation changed over weeks or months.

When you read, ask two simple questions: who is speaking and what action followed. That helps you spot whether a headline is opinion, a plan, or a confirmed event.

Recent posts under this tag include stories that show the range of coverage: "Diepkloof Protests Shut Down Johannesburg Highways as Calls for Better Services Turn Deadly" and "Snowstorm in South Africa Paralyzes Roads, Causes Deaths and Traps Hundreds of Motorists." Those pieces show how local problems and national politics collide — from service failures to emergency responses.
