Over 200 businesses have joined ActionSA's lawuit against Ramaphosa
Meanwhile, Briefly News previously reported that in the aftermath of the looting and unrest in KwaZulu-Natal and Gauteng last month, Herman Mashaba, leader of the political organisation ActionSA, says over 200 businesses have committed to join the party's lawsuit against President Cyril Ramaphosa and the African National Congress.
In a statement issued on Monday, the political organisation plans to sue Ramaphosa as well as Government for failing to uphold and maintain law and order throughout the disturbance, according to a report by TimesLIVE.
“It is without a doubt that the loss of life and livelihoods must be laid squarely at the ANC’s feet. Now more than ever, Action SA is determined to ensure that South Africans receive justice and that those responsible for the destruction we have seen are held to account,” read the statement.
ActionSA also plans to include the ministry of police's Bheki Cele as well as members of the security cluster in its lawsuit, according to a report by Political Analysis SA.
Mashaba stated that ActionSA's legal representation is going over the submissions and will keep South Africans updated on the progress of the lawsuit.
The party has also called on more people who have been affected by the unrest to join the lawsuit and has stated that ActionSA is committed to providing an alternative political system to store an already failing system.
