💨 Abstract

ANC employees are protesting outside the party's fifth National General Council due to months of unpaid salaries, raising concerns about their ability to support their families during Christmas. Despite assurances from Secretary General Fikile Mbalula that the issue was being resolved, employees report ongoing financial struggles, including unpaid provident funds and suspended medical aid. The ANC's financial difficulties stem from a decrease in political donations following their loss of majority rule in the 2024 election.
