S Africa's ANC 'will not split'

South Africa's Finance Minister Trevor Manuel has dismissed the possibility of a split within the governing party.
He told the BBC there would be continuity despite some government resignations following ex-President Thabo Mbeki's controversial ouster.
Earlier, the head of Gauteng province also resigned over the decision by the African National Congress to force Mr Mbeki to leave office last week.
New leader Kgalema Motlanthe has been trying to ensure a smooth transition.
Mr Mbeki quit after a court ruling suggested he had tried to influence the prosecution on corruption charges of Jacob Zuma, head of the ANC. He denies interfering in the case.
Mr Zuma, who is favourite to become president in elections due next year, has been locked in a power struggle with Mr Mbeki and there have been rumours of the ANC splitting.
Meanwhile, prosecutors say they have filed papers asking for the right to appeal against a ruling that dismissed the corruption charges against Mr Zuma.
'Shock'
Mr Manuel told the BBC's Hardtalk programme that he has had an "unequivocal assurance" from Mr Motlanthe that South Africa's economic strategy and policy would not change.
