DA slams Zuma’s democracy statement

The Democratic Alliance has hit back at President Jacob Zuma’s statement that democracy needed “to produce good results”, and not a strong opposition, in order to be successful.

The remark came from an African National Congress fundraiser last night.

The DA’s Lindiwe Mazibuko describes it as a “profoundly undemocratic statement” for an incumbent president to make.

She also feels that it is patently untrue, as in South Africa, the best results are to be found where the national opposition party governs, not the ANC.
