JOHANNESBURG - Expelled African National Congress (ANC) member Carl Niehaus’ plans to create an opposition political party have not gained much support.

After serving the ANC for 43 years, the disgraced politician was expelled due to misconduct. He has since been vocal about the ruling party’s failures and believes it has been infiltrated by a rogue, sell-out, white monopoly capitalist agent.

Niehaus believes his political movement will work to liberate South Africans and members of the ANC. He also invited members of the governing party to join his movement, The Citizen reported.

The former ANC member said President Cyril Ramaphosa and his “sellouts” should not be allowed to use the party’s brand, colours, and logo after destroying it. He also claimed that the party is turned into a Trojan Horse for white monopoly capitalism and imperialism.

However, political analyst Thapelo Tsilapedi believes the ANC has no reason to feel threatened by Niehaus. He believes that Niehaus does not have the numbers to rival the ANC.

Speaking to EWN, Tsilapedi said it will be an uphill battle for Niehaus and other former ANC members to challenge the party. He added that the title of leadership is not only within the ANC but within society.
