News24 reports that the National Union of Mineworkers (NUM) on Wednesday publicly voiced its support for Deputy President Cyril Ramaphosa to become the next president of the country.
The union said in a series of tweets: "Comrade Cyril, we as NUM and Cosatu, we are now going out to campaign for you to become president…Ramaphosa will become the president of the country whether someone likes it or not." Ramaphosa was the NUM's first general secretary when the union was launched in 1982. "Comrade Ramaphosa brought so many changes in the country's workplaces, especially in mines. He will bring more changes when he becomes president," the NUM said.
