But due to the coronavirus pandemic, Ramaphosa will deliver a virtual address from Luthuli House in Johannesburg in the evening.

This will be preceded by interviews of veterans and stalwarts on the importance of the January 8 statement.

ANC head of the organising team, Nomvula Mokonyane says they will use the address to outline their plan of action for the year.

ANC briefing on the 109 birthday celebrations:

This year’s celebration will honour the second president of the party, Sefako Makgatho.

Makgatho was ANC president between 1917 and 1924.
