The ANC also faces the challenge of rebuilding voter confidence and demonstrating that it can improve service delivery.

The party is under pressure after its support dropped to just over 30%.

Thursday’s extended NEC meeting is expected to set out guidelines for the party’s negotiating team ahead of coalition talks.
