The DA leader slammed environmental affairs minister Nomvula Mokonyane for having sold out the struggle of South Africans for 'braai packs and Johnnie Walker.
Maimane said the ANC could not be trusted to deliver jobs when they were failing to deliver electricity.
The DA leader slammed former Gauteng premier and current environmental affairs minister Nomvula Mokonyane for having sold out the struggle of South Africans for"braai packs and Johnnie Walker" and being responsible for the state of Bekkersdal. "When I come to this community, I feel pain ....Our people are poor, they are dying of hunger. Our people don’t work, it’s hard here in Bekkersdal," said Maimane to a cheering crowd.
"They are going to come here to campaign and give our people food parcels, I want to say don’t come here with food parcels. It is better that we choose a government that is going to come here and ensure there is a job in every home in this community," said Maimane.
