In response to African National Congress (ANC) President Jacob Zuma’s confidence that the ANC will win the Western Cape in the general election, the Democratic Alliance (DA) says that the Western Cape ANC is “desperate and squirming”.

The DA’s Coenraad Bezuidenhout says that there is no way that the ANC will win the Province.
“ANC President Jacob Zuma’s statement, that the ANC in the Western Cape is assured of a victory, is not only wishful thinking, it is a deliberate untruth. The truth of the matter is that the ANC is up for an electoral defeat of note,” said Bezuidenhout.

The DA says that the ANC has turned to the use of “dirty electioneering tricks” and claim that ANC members have fiddled with DA posters as well as engaging in campaign sabotage.

“They are spreading deliberate untruths about the DA’s performance in the City of Cape Town government, which is incidentally the best run city in the country,” he said.
