Small parties threaten to 'call our masses' over election protest.
During a media briefing on Friday, members of the different parties claimed they were not a"disgruntled" group.
"This election is not fair and transparent. The IEC has admitted in these PLC meetings that there have been irregularities and some people have been arrested already. We have been threatened by the IEC, they've brought in a judge and we are telling the same judge that we are not going to be intimidated," he said.
"We are not worried about the numbers on the board because those numbers don't represent the views of the people. If it comes to push we are going to call our masses to come here and protest for free and fair elections," he added. Congress of the People member Dennis Bloem said the ANC was trying to make South Africa a"banana republic".
