    ANC to speak as South Africa waits to find out who will govern

    The African National Congress will give an early indication on Wednesday of its response to last week's election, which ended its 30-year run as the majority party and plunged South Africa into political uncertainty unseen in the democratic era. The ANC, which is still the largest party but can no longer govern alone, said it would hold a news conference at 12 p.m. (1000 GMT), but it is not expected to make an announcement about any coalition plans as it has yet to decide on its position. Voters, politicians and financial markets are on tenterhooks to find out which party or parties the ANC will approach to form a national government and will be scrutinising every detail that comes out of the news conference for clues on what to expect.
