ACT out: Magashule's ambitions of taking over Free State a 'far-fetched pipe dream'
Current Free State Premier Mxolisi Dukwana criticised ACT and Magashule's leadership, highlighting a legacy of corruption and mismanagement.
The numbers did not deter ACT provincial secretary Kgaketla Mokoena, who maintained the party would take over the Free State. "It doesn't matter what is happening there ; we are still hoping that at the end of counting, we will be ruling the Free State," Mokoena said. Current Free State premier and ANC member Mxolisi Dukwana dismissed Magashule's hopes of taking over the province, saying it was a pipe dream in the harsh light of political reality.
"They are just dreaming; they still have to work hard. I don't think that they will last after these elections, and I don't think you will hear of ACT again." "It is under his leadership that we have unfinished projects where money was paid to contractors even before they started. Echoing Dukwana's sentiments, Bloemfontein resident Donald Constable voiced grave concerns over the political and social disorder experienced in the Free State during Magashule's tenure."Magashule was a very dynamic and fearless politician. But that changed when he gained too much popularity and power in Mangaung.
