President Cyril Ramaphosa has stated that the governing party is counting on the National Union of Mineworkers (NUM) to assist in restoring the African National Congress (ANC) to its former grandeur.

He was addressing at the 17th National Union of Mineworkers (NUM) national convention in Boksburg, east of Johannesburg.

Former NUM General Secretary and former President Kgalema Motlanthe, as well as Congress of South African Trade Unions (Cosatu) General Secretary Bheki Ntshalintshali, also attended the occasion.
