Quick Glance: Rand builds on Ramaphosa's victory
- Ramaphosa faced out against the so-called radical economic transformation faction in the ANC elections, which critics believed would pull the governing party off course, impeding the implementation of economic reforms.
- In 2017, Ramaphosa received 2 440 votes to Nkosazana Dlamini Zuma's 2 261 votes.
- In conclusion, the BER stated that "while a Ramaphosa second term should boost confidence on the margin, the composition of the top six [leaders] and broader ANC NEC is unlikely to spark animal spirits"
- She stated that a triumphant Ramaphosa will take this chance to eliminate opponents of his economic policies and changes, allowing for a faster implementation of structural reforms in South Africa.
