Speakers at a religious ceremony honouring President Thabo Mbeki in the Eastern Cape have called on him to stand for a third term as ANC president, SABC news reported.
Mbeki was attending a religious ceremony in his honour at his family home at Ngcingwane village near Dutywa.
The House of Traditional Leaders said the body based its support for Mbeki's third term on steps he had taken to address issues affecting them.
Mbeki read from the Bible, choosing a passage from Samuel, thanking God for protecting him thus far.
Among those present were the Queen Mother and members of the Royal Bafokeng tribe, several traditional leaders and members of the Eastern Cape cabinet.
Former ANC Women's League President Winnie Madikizela Mandela, who was a member of the Pondo Royal family, had also been invited but had not yet arrived, reported the SABC.

Dear Fellow Zimbabweans,
Me Mbeki is very much worth watching!
If you hear him saying, "I am accepting the 'people's' request that I stand for the Third Term; then you know a Robert Mugabe is emerging among us!
It must equally affect how we relate to his role in our own Zim situation!
WATCH THIS SPACE!
