ANN7's Hajra Omarjee Reporting Live From BRICS Summit

ANN7's Senior Political Correspondent (and host of Political Edge), Hajra Omarjee, is reporting live from Fortaleza, Brazil where the 6th BRICS Summit is taking place this week. She will be reporting live throughout the day as events unfold and also to provide commentary and will continue to do so throughout the three day summit.

President Jacob Zuma is, of course, attending the summit where the BRICS Development Bank is expected to be inaugurated at.

Though Hajra is a political correspondent, ANN7 does not have a business centric broadcast (but the news channel oddly has a daily sport and entertainment show that airs multiple times throughout the day), they are the only channel providing on the ground coverage of the event. Neither SABC News' prime time business anchor, Francis Herd (or any other anchor or correspondent), nor eNCA's Arabile Gumede are attending the event.
