The people have spoken. The message to the ANC is clear: one last chance - clean up your act or you will be punished further in the 2021 local government elections.
A powerful network of government, business and civil society could truly map out a different future for South Africa. Needless to say, building such networks is hard work and will be fraught with disagreements, yet Ramaphosa will have to grasp the nettle of a broad-based consensus for accountability across society. It would allow him the space to make decisions that may be unpopular within his party and provide ballast for the constitutional democracy he has promised to rebuild.
If there were sobering lessons for the ANC, the opposition too has learned of the brutal lows - and great highs - of elections. Of course, future trends will be interesting and that will include whether younger voters who did not register or those who stayed away will float to the EFF? Only time - and the local government elections - will tell.

2019 election a recovery from the lows of 2016: DuarteANC deputy secretary Jessie Duarte also said service delivery issues played a role in the party's decline in support. 🖤💚🧡✊🏾 I believe that some of this below also played a MAJOR PART, sadly it is the parts that the corrupt anc has shown VERY CLEARLY over the past 10+ years, that they are INCAPABLE of EVER FIXING! 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.
