Voices | ANC votes: It’s not about whites, it’s about Cyril writes RapuleT
white votes for the ANCSpeaking to a crowd in Ekurhuleni and in a subsequent interview with City Press, party secretary-general Ace Magashule went out of his way to dispel any thinking that white people would vote for thein these elections. He dismissed sentiments from the Gauteng ANC that more people from minority race groups had shown interest in voting for the ANC in these elections.
The claims about Ramaphosa’s popularity with whites clearly rattled his critics inside the party, warranting the response: “You are not that popular, we last saw a popular leader in the time of Mandela and it is a myth that you will entice whites to vote for the ANC.” When you hear Ramaphosa say: “South Africa is one of a handful of countries whose central bank is owned by private investors and the move to bring it under the control of its citizens will affirm the nation’s sovereignty”, remember that this is a leader seeking compromise as enemies gather around him.
