Let me begin tonight’s Closing Remarks to the National Executive Committee of the ANC by congratulating the Springboks for the exhilarating victory against France in the Rugby World Cup quarter finals last night.

I also want to congratulate the Proteas who are also showing a sterling performance at the Cricket World Cup in India. Both the Proteas and Springboks will be facing England in their next fixtures.

I call on all South Africans to stand united behind both teams and show tremendous support from all sectors of our society.
