Have you taken the #AmandlaChallenge? It’s simple. All you have to do is raise your fist, snap a photo and post it on social media with the hashtag.
In the run up to its 103rd bithrday bash in Cape Town on Saturday, the African National Congress (ANC) has asked citizens to show support and remember the party’s selfless struggle against apartheid through selfies.
And many South Africans have eagerly complied.

The ruling party might be getting ready to eat, dance, and go wild. But already signs of a hangover are showing.
