LU STOUT: All right. Coming to you live from Hong Kong. Welcome back. This is "News Stream." There have been celebrations in South Africa after the ruling party, the African National Congress, elected a new leader. Cyril Ramaphosa will replace Jacob Zuma as the head of the party, something that puts him on track for the presidency. David McKenzie has more from Johannesburg.</s>DAVID MCKENZIE, CNN INTERNATIONAL CORRESPONDENT: They are celebrating their candidate with one top position (ph), but the news today is that Cyril Ramaphosa, the deputy president of the country, has now taken the lead of the ANC as president of the ruling party here in South Africa.</s>UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: We declare comrade Cyril Ramaphosa as the new president of the African National Congress.</s>MCKENZIE (voice over): It was a contentious vote. It was at times a controversial vote. But these some 5,000 delegates made the choice that could affect more than 15 million South Africans. Many people had been angry with the direction that the country had been taking because of the allegations of corruption against Jacob Zuma. (on camera): This was as much a referendum on the outgoing president of the ANC. He has denied all those allegations. But now, the question is, will Cyril Ramaphosa take this party and potentially this country in a new direction? David McKenzie, CNN, Johannesburg.</s>LU STOUT: Ethiopian Airlles makes history with its first ever flight within African operated entirely by women. From the pilots to the flight dispatchers, all roles were filled by women on Saturday's flight to Nigeria. About two years ago, the airline assigned an all female crew on the flight outside of Africa, but this is their first on the continent. It is meant to encourage African women to pursue careers in male-dominated industries. An inspiration to us all, really. That is "News Stream." I'm Kristie Lu Stout, but don't go anywhere, "World Sport" with Alex Thomas is next.
