“The ANC has had to learn the control of coalition policy, especially in the budgeting process,” said Netshitenzhe.
“The anger that the performance of the DA has led on this issue has led to a serious investigation of alternative coalition options. We saw the results of the ANC NEC [national executive committee] Meet last weekend. ”
In his closing speech at the NEC, Ramaphosa announced that the NEC had decided to include other parties in the GNU. According to Timeslive, the ANC has been in Loggerheads with its greatest partners in the government, with the recent disagreements caused by the decision of Ramaphosa to dismiss the vice minister of trade, industry and competition Andrew Whitfield.
In protest, the DA criticized the national dialogue and threatened to reject the budgets of ANC ministers accused of misconduct. This was considered a turning point between the two partners.
Netshitenzhe said that the mistrabarometer shows that the decreasing volatility in municipalities guided by the coalition, albeit with minimal progress in good financial management and delivery of basic services.
“The ANC and his allies seem to be stuck in the field of the board, and they will have to learn the use of other areas of dispute,” he said.
“ANC is seen as the dei [diversity, equality and inclusion] Incarnate of confirming action under right-wing tires, especially in the US. The country must be to find ways to negotiate a minefield in which [the] Very essence of being if post -colonial democracy is challenged. “
The barometer notes that the period of monitoring of national and provincial coalition -oriented “was only nine months in duration and therefore too short to make substantial findings with regard to the quality of coalition management”.
It states that local coalitions have seen reduced volatility compared to previous years, but the services and the board remain inconsistent due to frequent coalition changes and faded accountability.
“On the theme of stability and in view of the fact that the provincial and national coalitions of the current era have started relatively recently, not much instability could be expected. However, the potential is: the KwaZulu-Natal Coalition rule with a limited margin, and Gauteng has a coalition of minorities dependent on the power of the power of the power of the power of the power.
“The Northern Cape with its ANC almost majority and an oversupply of loyal confidence partners has a reasonably guaranteed stability,” says the report.
“At the national level, the competition for the heart of the government coalition continues. These competitions … were the core of policy and administrative processes for 2024-25”.
“In the first place, the monitoring details show how challenging the ANC has found it to accept in its administrative operations that coalition management means power distribution and sufficient consultation between partners.
“In many ways, the action continued as if it had only power. It used his greatest status to claim a right to rule with the level of authority it had previously kept.”
