DA leader Mmusi Maimane linked ANC president Cyril Ramaphosa’s failures with those of the ANC when he addressed thousands of supporters clad in the party’s blue. Ramaphosa’s election as ANC president bolstered the party after years of scandal with his message of reforming the state and reversing the effects of his predecessor Jacob Zuma.The coming elections are set to be the most contested since the dawn of democracy in 1994, with 48 parties on the national ballot.
The DA’s chief executive Paul Boughey told Business Day the party is on track to obtain its primary targets. Referring to the national picture, for which none of the pollsters have been able to provide a coherent forecast, he said: “KwaZulu-Natal is for the national picture the most important province for SA’s democratic future.”
