ANC
The African National Congress has hailed its win in the by-election for Ward 10 in Greater Tshwane Region, Gauteng, as a sign of renewed trust from voters. The party secured a clear majority with 2,214 votes, beating out the Economic Freedom Fighters, uMkhonto weSizwe Party, Democratic Alliance, and Al Jama-ah.
This result comes from the poll on 1 October 2025, where turnout showed strong community involvement despite it being a mid-week vote. The ANC’s success in this urban ward, covering areas like Soshanguve, highlights its ongoing appeal in key battlegrounds.
This victory is part of a string of good news for the ANC in Gauteng, where it also triumphed in other wards during the same round of by-elections. Party leaders say these wins prove their renewal efforts are paying off, with a focus on better service delivery and community engagement. As South Africa gears up for more local polls, these results could boost morale and shape strategies. This article looks at the Ward 10 outcome, compares it to other recent votes, and explores what it means for politics in the province.
Ward 10 Results: ANC Holds Firm in Tshwane
In Ward 10 of Greater Tshwane, the ANC took 2,214 votes, making up over half of the total. The EFF came second with 982, followed by the MKP at 508, the DA with 493, and Al Jama-ah trailing at 24. This clear win keeps the seat in ANC hands, showing voters still back the party despite tough competition from newer groups like the MKP.
The by-election was called after the previous councillor stepped down, drawing interest from major parties. Campaigning focused on local issues like water supply, road fixes, and job creation in this working-class area. ANC supporters celebrated the result, with the party’s Gauteng branch issuing a thank-you poster highlighting the numbers and thanking residents for their support.
This outcome bucks trends in some areas where opposition parties have gained ground, proving the ANC’s grassroots work can still deliver wins in urban spots.
