BBC World Service - Newsday, ANC to elect party leader

President Cyril Ramaphosa is hoping to be re-elected

President Cyril Ramaphosa’s main leadership rival is the former health minister Zweli Mkhize

South Africa's governing African National Congress (ANC) opens its national conference shortly, during which President Cyril Ramaphosa hopes to be re-elected as party leader. Mr Ramaphosa escaped an impeachment inquiry in parliament earlier this week. His main leadership rival will be the former health minister, Zweli Mkhize, who has also been the subject of corruption allegations.

And Twitter has closed the accounts of a number of journalists working for high-profile outlets including CNN, the New York Times and the Washington Post. Most had written about the takeover of the firm by Elon Musk.
