According to the opposition party, the ruling party started the protests and are now unable to contain them.
At a press conference held by the Democratic Alliance on Thursday morning to address the media on the state of the party’s election campaign, DA national spokesperson Solly Malatsi said the ANC was to blame for ongoing violent protests taking place around South Africa.“The ANC campaign of violence is bad for our democracy. It is evident that Cyril Ramaphosa is not in charge of the ANC, his weak leadership is evident for everyone to see,” Malatsi said.
“The ANC does not have a campaign except violence and intimidation. The people of Alex have legitimate grievances because they have been failed by the ANC government for 25 years.”Protests are ongoing in several DA-controlled municipalities.
