ATM president Vuyo Zungula has written to the IEC demanding the DA to be struck off the ballot for the local government elections scheduled for November 1 for allegedly inciting violence with its election posters in Phoenix.

He said in a country that is trying to heal from the injustices of the past, racial and economic inequalities, and unfair distribution of economies, the fuelling of the zeitgeist adversely sets the country back over a decade in the attempt to rebuild South Africa.

Zungula said that no loss of life in this country should be celebrated, especially when the material conditions and status quo prompt unruly action. He said the community of Phoenix was merely protecting themselves after the residents were described as blood-thirsty racist Indians. Mathekga rather suggests that the DA should feel the pinch of their political statement, which may have been miscalculated and lacked strategy.

Still can figure out what was wrong with the DA posters....and I am no DA fan

You have my vote, pronounce where you stand with mandatory vaccination

Leaves_EL Why don't we do the same thing to DA and come together to remove racist DA. All anti racist movements. I am calling for all revolutionalists to come together and call for removal of DA so that we have the freedom in south africa. Down with DA, down!!! 👎👎👎

For all the shot the eff and the anc does but does not get removed.

What is wrong with the poster?

ATM’s poes man!!

JZ foundation is that you😉😉😉?

Disappointing this smallanyana Gupta party.. 1st November elections are not about posters dummie..they are about municipality services..ppl want services..can u deliver

This ATM clown leader came with instigator's idea

Who is ATM's spokesperson?

Automatic Tellerbank Machine , should definitely stay away from the treasury in case they win

Didn’t the ATM get bombed in a cash heist ?

ATM can go... Try & get votes to start with!

ATM shouldn’t be intimidated by competitors but focus on their campaign - not enemies dead !

If causing division for nothing was a person

They are crazy

Aarrgghh

Aykhale 😂

Does he drink this oke? Or is he just mentally derailed? A small ask for my friend 😁

Very good suggestion,We don't tolerate racism.🤞🤞🤞

why ATM is so weak is ATM scared of DA let the voters decide it is our Constitutional right

Thank you Vuyo

I agree with Zungula on this point. The DA acted disgracefully. Where do we lodge a complaint IECSouthAfrica ?

Why call for DA's removal, mind your own business ATM and focus on winning the local elections. Please don't behave like EFF?

Which ATM is this, they'll bomb it and take our money while it's busy commenting about politics.

I won't mind cuz DA could have done the same for any black party..it must be removed ...damn racist party

Are you going to make the same call about EFF...

Kuyafana

Its called freedom of speach

Unbelievable. Lol.

Lol, but ANC who instigated a week of looting and murdering is fine? What is going on in SA

ATM is on the right path problem it is a church, church leaders are not chosen on merit eventually there is going to be leadership squabbles

ZungulaVuyo wanya

Leadership

IndWorldThinker Where csn we petition tge removal and white people from our politics

Who the hell is ATM…..ass to mouth? 🤷🏻‍♂️🤷🏻‍♂️

Our_DA pulled similar stunts with EFFSouthAfrica a week ago, so I most certainly agree with ATM they must be deregistered as a matter of urgency.

Good point

I wish they win

Shem, anything for attention.

This ATM is out of service

DA broke code of conduct by making unfounded allegations against ANC and creating racial tension in that poster message. What's the verdict IEC?

Just allow the people to vote their choices and views....

😂😂🤣🤣🤣

Getting on the bandwagon only now? To claim free glory? 🤣🤣🤣

What was wrong with the poster?

It doesn't make sense at all

Who?

Who is ATM? Like a capitec atm?

this is a party with 1 seat in parliament 😂😂😂😂and they wanna call shots.

You're scared they'll dilute the electorate for you

Chancers🤣🤣🤣🤣

Boss move

Yes off the ballot that's political consequences. IEC and SAHRC we watching.

No need to remove them they are not getting our votes anyway

Vuyo is losing it. But I don't blame him... He's acting on the instructions of ANC RET faction and the Aces and Zumas of the world. That's why you see a brilliant young man using old men's political approaches. Kinda sad to witness.

Simply don't get what the problem with the poster is.....I must be heroic racist

Chance takers using and living off gupta looting

Enough is enough get rid of the racists once and for all.

The brave....

lol

There's something wrong with these political parties and I guess that's why there's so many independent parties,I'm myself getting tired of this tit for tat behaviour of these party leaders...

And all other parties that create polarity. Oh wait, that will mean almost all parties,including ARM.

Does the “T” stand for “Troll” or “Trash”?

Vuyo,pres of ATM....are you smoking your socks?

Can the ATM be realistic for once?

Shitting themselves that DA is able to out perform ANC and their crooked surrogates like his pathetic party

Bozza move ZungulaVuyo the IECSouthAfrica has no choice but to deregister Our_DA

Shame 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

That is ambitious

ATM wants 'judges with dubious judgments' withdrawn from chief-justice raceThe party wants the process of appointing the next head of the judiciary temporarily halted. Is Ramaphosa a dubious judge, why didn't you put a picture of that judge there, Ramaphosa is a dubious President and irrelevant for your ranting, give us proper news please. Dustbin Mlambo is that judge

2021 Municipal Elections | DA to remove controversial Phoenix postersThe DA has had a change of heart - it's decided to get rid of election posters with a controversial message and has since apologised. Pointless now. The message has been received loud & clear. Unfortunately we already seen when they stand😔 Set alight last night & no Eskom insight in Sunbird Park, Kuils River. No political party assistance. Who will be paying for our losses? What do we do to have this matter resolve, please?!

WATCH | Sparks fly over DA's Phoenix campaign postersThe DA's election campaign posters in Phoenix outside Durban have caused an uproar. The party is being accused of fanning racial tensions in the area. If the purpose of the poster was to gain votes then I think it did, I was split between voting for EFF or ANC, but after seeing that poster it's DA all the way
