2016 polls were wake-up call for ANC, Jessie Duarte says

The ANC most notably held on to Gauteng with 50.19% of the support, where it tumbled to 45.84% of support in the province in 2016. The DA in 2016 received 37.23% of the support in Gauteng. The ANC had plummeted to 53.59% of support in 2014, from just above 64% in 2009. By receiving 50.19% of the vote in Gauteng in 2019, it has arrested its electoral decline in no small way.

Duarte said the ANC’s mandate was clear: South Africans wanted a growing economy that created jobs, programmes that tackled poverty more effectively, built viable communities close to work and reduced the cost of living.

You are one of the reasons they did sooo badly. GET OUT YOU OLD HAGE

When are you going to prison

Lock her up. She and her family is part and parcel responsible for statecapture

Just resign old woman.

I suggest we just cancel elections keep what we have because no matter how much the ANC steals nothing will change. Save a fortune and a lot of stress

This one must go

Having heard this aunties talk, I sincerely hope the spineless anc do something about the corrupt individuals in the party. All talk and no action. Mark my word.
