BNC#6: Maimane Q&A - Returning to parliament, inspiration from Macron, his vision for SA's future
Mmusi Maimane, the leader of Build One South Africa (BOSA), discussed his political inspiration and strategy at the BizNews Conference BNC#6 in Hermanus. Drawing parallels with Macron's centrist approach, Maimane emphasised pragmatic solutions over ideological divides. He highlighted BOSA's focus on citizen empowerment, transparency in candidate selection, and grassroots engagement bolstered by a robust online presence. Addressing challenges such as voter intimidation and the need for job creation, he outlined a vision for a post-ANC South Africa, appealing to dignity and shared prosperity. With a strategic organization of over 40,000 activists, Maimane aims to shift the political landscape towards a centrist, values-driven governance model.

He may not have been the right person for the DA last Time, but he has come on a long way and he MUST be in the future leadership of this country, together with his new candidates. I intend voting BOSA nationally and DA provincially (I have been DA for most of the past and they have shown that administratively they are best equipped for day-to-day issues). He is streets ahead of Steenhuisen as a leader. I am white, well educated and 72 yo

Couldn't agree more
I'm educated enough to know that Mmusi Maimane is the ideal candidate. Many of you might think people like him are weak or too soft to run the country. He has integrity and the capacity to lead. The unfortunate thing is that most people won't realise what a treasure is Mmusi. Love the man❤❤❤
Now this is how a President should sound... here's why. PIGI. Passion, Integrity, Genuine, Invested. South Africa needs a Mandela, a visionary with values and Mmusi clearly is is. I'm an IFP voter usually but Mmusi should be in Pretoria,
Well done Mmusi, so glad you are going back to parliament.
This man is a leader and know what the people need to move our country forward positively. You have my x I want you in parliament and our votes will make sure you go there.
Mmusi you are my man, i like your presentation and your thoughts of getting our beloved South Africa on the road to success, away from stupid laws which hinder economic success. i am a whity, almost 80 years old, this election is maybe my last one, so you got my vote. I hope you get the earned support from any of us.
This guy would make a great premier or minister of education!!!

Amen!
I am from Mpumalanga, and I will be voting for BOSA.
Mmusi is a guy I can see leading South Africa maybe 20 years from now. His approach is correct but right now we need major changes in the short term. All the best to him and BOSA.

I think not. Maimane is too soft to do what's needed to sort out SA... We don't need another Ramaphosa again. The next 5 years, we need a Trump type personality and then Maimane.
Vote for this man
Mmusi should have been the new President

Because he is well spoken. You are easily fooled.
And that's why we love Mmusi, continuing to chop at the ANC tree may not be the best way to topple it- if we start reframing the discussion towards what happens afterwards, we start winning the minds of those uncertain over what happens next. We need to allow everyone regardless of political position to build their own story for what happens next. Thank you Mmusi
Oh yes! We need his expertise and vision. Love what he is saying
yoh the way he narrated the ANC voters question....mind blowing 👌👌👌

I felt that... And I'm sure that room felt it too.
Great interview. Excellent answers from an inspiring leader with a compelling future vision.
Bosa Next level ❤
There are many who did vote for you. And many who will vote for you❤
If Mmusi manages to pull Vusi and Herman beside him, we have a winning team with common sense pragmatism

Damn this dude is brilliant🤦🏿♂️…I almost regret not registering to vote. The end was nothing short of brilliant.
Yes musi u are an inspiration to all south Africans who can understand ye idearologi
No wonder he enjoys the popular support which he does. Great loss to the DA. Great win for SA
Alec, here's challenge for you... Arrange the next BIZNEWS conference outside your comfort zone and try to get your conference attendees to include more of other races so that BIZNEWS objectives is more widely spread.
Mmusi is like the N'golo Kante of South African politics he's just soo loveable
Just very, very good journalism.. 👍👍
I like the Moderator/ Interviewer set of skill and Knowledge
Musi Musi , i must give you my vote
Yessssssssssssss Mosi, im voting You. But mix Boughie with Kasi Flair.
We need more strong people like u to have a beautiful South African
Mmusi seems to understand the sovereignty of the people, by wanting the people to be involved in doing the work for the people!
Okay, I would have voted for Mmusi if he was in the MPC
Amen!
Everyone , in the past has voted for a party .... it's time to vote for the man and what he/she stands for.
Truth💔😭🙌🏼🙏🏽
i would love for this man to be president but i’m worried he’s independent party is too small
Well that Brenthurst research poll definitely wasn't off Musi. Alec each & every person who spoke here please do have another conversation with them after elections.
Fantastic leader if only the people can realise 😢
Wish he was our president ❤
Mmusi!!!!30:31!!!!💣🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
As soon as you put someone on a pedestal, they fall so hard.
Mmusi sounds presidential. Don’t think he’ll be effective as a leader tho.
💃🏻🇿🇦 well done Musi
BOSA has my X
Like most voters we dont know where to put Musi. The man quotes Obama and the Bible whatda heck
Bring in GG Wilcot. As a start.
Pls invite John Mathuhle from #Hope4SA to be interviewed by yourself as well. I think that you will be pleasantly surprised by him and #Hope4SA
Haha if you listen to every party it's all about a big promise that they will help change listen to him his learning about his audience and how to sell to them
Mosa ask yourrself whats going to be the End Strategy to pull voters in the last month b4 Election and it should be something never seen Before but simple and able to reach Big Numbers.
Musi
Part of DANCE
never voted cause I lived abroad I'm voting mymoney
The sad thing is all these parties are being studied by the D.A
Mr Maimane, so your views should result in your party winning at least 10% of the vote.... If not, would you change your views on what's needed to unseat the ANC?
"Political language is designed to make lies sound truthful and murder respectable, and to give an appearance of solidity to pure wind." George Orwell
😂❤🎉
Macron as inspiration. No man!!!!
The memory of 1994 will kick in shortly before putting the cross. Many will fail to resist the memory of Madiba. The might of ANC is so enormous that others will denounce themselves before the counting finish.
This man would be a fabulous president. He understands the people of this country better than most, certainly better than the DA does. Yet, I feel I have no option than to vote DA in the coming elections as Musi's party is too small to make a difference at this stage, but BOSA will have my vote in 2029 provided that the party grows substantially by then.
What a lie Ramaphosa popular that is a lie ,
Maimane does not have the 'it' voice for the black voter, sorry.

What does that voice sound like?
Macron and Obama come on Musi no role models there.You are a good person but we need a decisive and fearless leader.You too much like Ramaphosa will pander to the alphabet community and others.We need Gayton Mckenzie that's my opinion you more like a deputy
He's unable to convince the ground forces
Maimane after fame and power!!!!
I don't think he will be in parliament
Mosa i love your approach as a new pary, but dont make it accademix.find a "platform window basket" and speak practical solutions like bursaries tied to jobs, ending porvety by making sure Government Businesses will be the Big Employers your Transnet and SAAs. Thirdly there jobs for youth associated with Goos Municipal Services. Lastly strengthen supervision to implement the Above. Youth can supervise the Old and ViceVersa fot the Success of this Country. We need a livin and Strong Supervisions at all Levels. Find the Platform. Use Drones and leasure robots to Attract the Youth
