JOHANNESBURG - President Cyril Ramaphosa has urged Mamelodi residents to give the African National Congress a second chance instead of what he called repeating the mistake of voting the Democratic Al
liance into government like they did in the local government elections.
Ramaphosa was campaigning in the area on Thursday which has recently seen violent protests over service delivery.So, when Ramaphosa addressed residents there, he told them they couldn’t return the DA to government in this metro. “We took the municipality and gave it to the DA, that’s a big mistake. I hope you see that and I hope you won’t repeat that.”“You will give the ANC another chance, right? You will put your trust in the ANC, right?”
Ramaphosa reminded residents that the ANC had provided them with services such as housing and free education and he claimed the party had more plans for them— EWN Reporter May 2, 2019 #ANC Pres Cyril Ramaphosa has arrived to campaign in #Mamelodi pic.twitter.com/b1Of4eK5ht
