South Africans say the ANC created Mzansi's problems

@Lekako3 said:

"@MYANC created all this mess SA is in, and then they want people to vote for them again to fix their own mess. I sometimes wonder if Cyril hears himself when he speaks."

@Skinzy13 said:

"Imagine, going around telling people you will solve challenges that your party created."

@smlunguana said:

"Are you serious @CyrilRamaphosa?? What challenges have you resolved in the last 5 years in office?"

@KeSeRomeo said:

"But again majority will be persuaded and still vote for the ANC."

@gerritvn1 said:

"Really, and are they complying? If he and his cabinet turn seriously to the Lord Jesús Christ and repent of their sin of theft and corruption, maybe we would start to believe him. The Bible is clear, without repentance of sin, no one will see heaven. Judgement is coming."

Mzansi shares predictions for upcoming 2024 elections, many speculate on a coalition

Briefly News previously reported that who will reign as the ruling party in the 2024 South African general election? This is the question on many South African's lips as the anticipated political event to elect a new National Assembly and the provincial legislature in each province.

According to a report by City Press, despite the ANC's dwindling public support, opposition parties have been unable to capitalise on this. They have been unable to gain the trust of those voters looking for an alternative.

The Social Research Foundation (SRF) 2022 election database survey, conducted in July, indicates that if an election were to be held soon, the ANC would garner roughly 50% of the votes with a 66% voter turnout or 52% with a 56% voter turnout.
