Apartheid was all about a small group of people, led by supporters of the National Party, denying access to power to a much larger majority. The end of Apartheid was defined by that minority group losing power and the majority, led by supporters of the African national Congress Party, assuming power. After the end of Apartheid, the power was in the hands of the political leadership of the African National Congress. The ANC at that time was led by Nelson Mandela.
The current president of South Africa is Jacob Zuma, who has been in power since 2009.
