The ANC has successfully steered the struggle of the people of South Africa to oppose colonialism and put an end to apartheid for a long time since its foundation, the message noted.

We believe that the 54th national conference will serve as an important occasion in solidifying the successes made in the struggle for the independent development and prosperity of the country and further strengthening the ANC, it added.

Expressing belief that the long-standing friendly and cooperative ties between the WPK and the ANC forged in the joint struggle for independence against imperialism would as ever grow stronger in the interests of the peoples of the two countries, it wished the conference success.
