ANALYSIS: The ANC/EFF deal in Ekurhuleni may cause more internal ructions in the governing partyThis week the ANC and the EFF are expected to try, again, to form what could be their first formal coalition in a Gauteng metro. Last week, they came closer than ever before but, just before a vote was due to be held, they appear to have been unable to agree on who exactly would be the mayor of Ekurhuleni. This important development is hatching just as the ANC councillors are refusing to vote in some other councils nationally even against direct orders. Few months back I had no way of taking care of my kids , had no job or money also struggling through the pandemic,so I decided to try Bitcoin trading with the help of Ambery_Marcus3,I was able to earn $50,000 now am financially Shameful! The ANC will be remembered not only for its incompetence & destruction of SA’s infrastructure and SOEs in the post-apartheid era, but also for giving Fascists a foothold in actual governance. The complete erosion of integrity in what was once a liberation movement. Another flip flop from the EFF. Their policies seem to be whatever their CIC feels like when he wakes up.
