Newly-elected ANC deputy president Cyril Ramaphosa says he has called for a review of his business dealings to avoid any conflict of interest in his new post.
He said in a statement on Wedesnday that this is necessary to "address any potential conflicts of interest, and to ensure that he can adequately perform the responsibilities of this position."
Ramaphosa left politics in 1997 to establish Shanduka Holdings.
He is chairperson of Bidvest Group Limited and MTN, and is the owner of the South African franchise of fast-food outlet McDonald's.
Ramaphosa also holds several non-executive directorships.
Meanwhile, ANC Eastern Cape secretary Mlibo Qoboshiyane has praised president Jacob Zuma's leadership style saying it has paid dividends at the Mangaung conference.
In a television interview broadcast on Wednesday Qoboshiyane said they were able to deliver a resounding victory for Zuma in spite of what he said, was a tremendous offensive against the ANC.
He said it became incumbent on leadership at the provincial level to respond to that offensive by convincing people at grassroots that the ANC is still continuing with the good programmes that it has.
He also said that Zuma's supporters on the ground were given credence by his common touch and his ability to reach out to people.
ANC delegates to the party's 53rd elective conference are currently debating several policy documents, including two main documents that focus on "speeding up economic transformation and organisational renewal."
