Why DA Wants These Specific Ministerial Positions

Published 2024-06-26
The DA has its eyes set on eleven cabinet positions and their deputies. This is according to a letter sent by DA federal executive chairperson Helen Zille on Sunday addressed to ANC secretary-general Fikile Mbalula.

These are not "just” any cabinet roles. They are strategic and basically paint a total takedown picture.

  • Since I am hearing the words "demands," as well as "unacceptable" and a fight in "court," it seems to me as though the so-called "government of national unity" is a mere slogan, isn't it? If the ANC expects to have a free hand in these proceedings, in "coalition" with the DA party, they are in for a shock. I don't think that either party wishes the other well, no matter what. Having lost the majority, the ANC will find it much more difficult to achieve anything if at all. Their hands are now tied more than ever, having squandered 30 years of goodwill they have had since 1994. What a pity!
  • @dankisten
    Because they will take of them and save our country.
  • The competency of the DA to govern will set us back on a path of prosperity. The DA does not allow corruption and misbehaviour. Renegades are soon dealt with and no drawn- out court cases ensue. Maybe this is what the cadres fear!
  • @King-uc1fg
    Keep the DA away from from the ministery of international relations and cooperation!
  • Shame to you anc members. You have sold your own hard earned country just to support one man Ramaphosa 😢you will cry😢😢😢
  • DA demands will be good for South Africa. Seems as all the areas where ANC did messed up is asked by DA. DA support for ANC.
  • I want to know is the politicians working for the people or for their personal self
  • Who ever made this Video is not South African and do not know the Reality in SA
  • As one looking from where we are…. ……from the last 15 years it was so destructive in the ANC hands. I this article frightens the true spirit of another future than what we have might need to know
  • Helen Zille the president of SA Rand and big business, see the rise of EFF and African spring.
  • It’s very correct to say all executive posts needs to be reviewed and balanced panels to review and appoint all senior govt posts. Comrades have been appointed unfairly by ANC. This practice must stop to stop the corrupt underhanded decisions made.
