Cakes are a big part of any celebration - and only prominent figures have the opportunity to cut the cake.
At the celebration, President Cyril Ramaphosa promised that the party was finding its way back to moral fortitude.
“We are correcting our own ways so that we serve our people with diligence and commitment. We want to get rid of the tendencies of the past, like corruption,” Ramaphosa said.
At the Mayibuye Multi-purpose Centre in Galeshewe for the cake cutting ceremony to mark 108 years of the ANC. In 2018 we embarked on a revolutionary pilgrimage and visited the gravesites of ANC leaders who were there in the beginning. ANC has a rich history and ancestry. #ANC108 pic.twitter.com/HDg7E7JZlH
