African National Congress (ANC) supporters in the Western Cape were joined by various civil society organisations from across Cape Town at a protest outside the provincial legislature where Premier Helen Zille was delivering her last State of the Province Address (Sopa).

During her Sopa, the premier outlined the Western Cape Government's achievements in recent years, as well as progress made on the Provincial Strategic Plan (PSP) and Western Cape Government's "Game Changers".

At a media briefing in Cape Town on Wednesday, the ANC called on residents from across Cape Town to occupy Wale Street on Friday to hear “the real state of the Western Cape government under the administration of the Democratic Alliance (DA)".

ANC Western Cape head of elections, Ebrahim Rasool, said the party plans to announce itself ready to govern the province.
