The ANC says pictures of bikini-clad women were not part of the party's election strategy.
"The ANC has established that the images were taken by a group of friends‚ who are also ANC supporters‚ who organised a beauty pageant. They then circulated the images.
"These images do not form part of an ANC elections campaign nor are they endorsed by the ANC‚" the party said in a statement‚ adding it was committed to the values of non-sexism and is opposed to any form of objectification of women.
This is not the first time swimwear and a model has been used to punt the ANC. In March‚ a photo of a Jamaican beauty was circulated by the Johannesburg branch of the ANC.
