Ramaphosa’s Cabinet Chaos: Shocking Breakdown of Unity Deal with DA Exposed!
MORE DETAILS 👇🏾
Just days after South Africa's unity government formed, severe conflicts have erupted between its major coalition partners, the African National Congress (ANC) and the Democratic Alliance (DA). Disagreements over cabinet appointments have led to stalled negotiations and a series of leaked letters exposing the discord. President Cyril Ramaphosa has accused DA leader John Steenhuisen of trying to establish a parallel government, a claim Steenhuisen denies. The ANC initially offered the DA six ministries, which was later revised, further displeasing the DA. This turmoil is causing anxiety in financial markets and highlighting deep-seated political instability. The May 29 elections forced the ANC, with 40% of the vote, into an unprecedented coalition with the DA, which secured 22%. Analysts anticipated such conflicts, but the escalating rift threatens to plunge South Africa into a period of significant political uncertainty. Political commentator Ayanda Msweli emphasizes the need for cooperation, recalling past coalition challenges, and urges parties to prioritize the electorate's needs over power struggles. The outcome of these fraught negotiations will critically impact South Africa's future stability and governance.
