ANC considers changing tack against DA’s Zille in Jozi

With the DA quick out of the gates to deploy one of its most senior members to run for Johannesburg’s mayoral chain, where does this leave the ANC? Does the party, wilting under its track record of corruption and poor service delivery rely on incumbent Dada Morero to take up the fight against Helen Zille in next year’s municipal polls? Or does it deploy a candidate no-one saw coming? With some answers for The Lead is our News24 journalist dabbling in local government politics, Siyamtanda Capa. Later in the show, a US-blacklisted Russian cargo plane touches down in Upington. Finally, we look back on Ian Smith’s last ditch attempts to keep white minority rule in Zimbabwe with “On This Day in SA History”.
