Mbalula has returned to work after collapsing, saying he is fit to resume his duties. Election Countdown: The ANC is campaigning in Cape Town but has yet to name its mayoral candidates.

Political Violence: Forty-four politically motivated killings have been recorded ahead of the polls, adding to concerns about candidate safety after two ANC members were shot dead in KwaZulu-Natal.
