1) Chris Pappas and his team wiped ALL of the debt left by the ANC in uMngeni in UNDER 1 year.
2) This video gives even more reason to ensure that the Doomsday Coalition doesn't win. The language used by the MEC is akin to the senselessly race-filled lexicon of EFF members.
This is such unprofessional and unprovoked behavior by the KZN Minister for Economic Development, Tourism and Environmental Affairs.
Image trying to foster good Intergovernmental Relationships (IGR) with a Minister like this.
Please pray for KZN. These are our leaders.

Thank you for the congratulatory messages and warm well-wishes.
I appreciate your words endlessly and will definitely treat them with the respect they all deserve.
Here’s to a great five years of serving the Republic of South Africa to the best of my abilities.

Today I was announced as one of the

The DA believes in young people and the future of this country - look no further than the first 2 digits of my ID… 01.
Let’s go out and rescue South Africa!

ANC works with the EFF in all of Gauteng's metros. Therefore, a vote for the ANC is also a vote for the EFF. At the same time, the PA always works with the ANC. Therefore a vote for the PA is also a vote for the ANC.
That means,
PA=ANC=EFF
Basic deductive reasoning.

I’m tired of the ANC giving us history lessons. You can’t sit in front of a group of people my age (2001) and want to talk about 1912.

Ahead of the DA's 2024 manifesto launch, DA federal council chairperson Helen Zille says the party wants to rescue South Africa. Political analyst Prof Lesiba Teffo says that if there's a party that can "take us some distance, it is the DA".

Political violence at the onset of an election cycle? Signs of a regime that is nearing its end.
This should not be tolerated. Free and fair elections are the core of any functioning democracy.
They can break our gazebos, break our sound systems, break our cars, but our spirit will never be broken.

A vote for the PA is clearly a vote for the CORRUPT ANC. They sold out the residents of Johannesburg to bring the ANC into power in exchange for MMC positions.
