@ancos46 posted her resignation on her X TikTok account. The woman identifies herself as Anco Barker and says she was also a member of the Democratic Alliance. She resigned from her councillor position in Mossel Bay, accusing the DA of fraud and corruption.

In her resignation video from the FF+, she stated that she was unashamedly Christian. She then gives reasons for resigning from the FFP.

"The constitution of the Freedom Front Plus caters exclusively to the Afrikaner nation, leaving out other communities based on their language and cultural heritage. As God is the creator of all, I cannot align myself with a party that excludes certain human beings. While the FFP acknowledges the Triune God, certain sections of its constitution contradict this principle."

Barker added that the party's sections 80.3.2.2 and 83.3.2.3 promote Afrikaner unity and self-determination, which she says is "reminiscent of Apartheid era governance", which she vehemently opposes. Watch the video here:
