The minister of Arts and Culture Nathi Mthethwa was in East London on Saturday where he received a hostile reception.
He visited Scenery Park as part of the ANC's Thuma Mina Programme where they are going door to door to interact with voters.
The aim of the visit was also to encourage voters to register and to ensure that their particulars were in order.
Mthethwa instead was greeted by angry residents who expressed their concerns over service delivery issues such as housing and sanitation
They accused the ANC of neglecting them and using them for votes.
Mthethwa told the residents that the ANC was aware of their problems and the community outreach programme was intended to see the extent of the problem. He pledged to report to the ANC national working committee.
