“In the past few years, I have observed that I no longer recognise this ANC that I joined, the ANC whose only aspiration was to liberate our people. The ANC as a liberation movement spoke and acted strongly on good ethics; a collective approach; was people focused; and emphasised on humanity and freedom for all,” he said.
“The above stated points represent a deviation from the ANC founding principles, as starkly illustrated by newly found emphasis on austerity measures. These austerity measures are characterised by severe reduction on social spending. For instance, social grants benefiting the elderly have been consistently increasing up until 2018 by 8% annually.
The former minister said that the party was “ravaged” by its leaders tackling each other on public platforms. Nhleko graded his record of service as “impeccable”, saying that he had executed work assigned to him, “to the best of my ability and commitment and did not disappoint the ANC”.
