The ANC has vowed to “unhack” its website after visitors were redirected to what seems to be a Turkish website which advertises food and shoes.

On offer are products such as strawberries and peri-peri. ANC spokesperson and national executive committee member Jackson Mthembu said the hacking was in bad taste.

“Those responsible for this do not want us to reach the electorate. This happened before. We are going to unhack it,” he said.

Mthembu said the ANC would attempt to “unhack” the site by this evening. At 6:30pm it was still reverting to another website.

Gotterdammerung says... Go to court to what end? To achieve what exactly? Maybe overturn some dustbins? Throw a couple of stone and bricks? What does the ANC want to achieve by calling their supporters to the footsteps of the court? Could it yet be more rabble-rousing, more anarchy, more mayhem and with the eyes of the world already watching make us as a nation look even more ridiculous? The ANC cries racism - where, how, why? No, they use the race card as a spoilt wife would use a platinum credit card in a shopping centre Read the article...
