Print reporters were prevented from entering houses during African National Congress president Jacob Zuma's door-to-door campaign in Soshanguve, Mabopane, and Ga-Rankuwa, near Pretoria on Friday.

Security personnel barred media with ipads and notepads, but allowed those with cameras into the homes.

Zuma was interacting with locals and asking about their problems.

He was visiting the three townships as part of his programme to mobilise support ahead of the May 7 elections.
