Ray Hartley talks Ramaphosa as ANC leader

--:--
It wasn't a landslide and it wasn't without contestation but the former deputy president of the ANC and South Africa Cyril Ramaphosa was narrowly voted into the leadership position on Monday at the 54th ANC conference at Nasrec.

Ray Hartley, former editor of the Sunday Times and online editor of BusinessLIVE at the Tiso Blackstar Group and recent author of 'Ramaphosa: The man who would be king' joins us in studio.
