He said the DA would deal with corruption and that those found guilty of the crime would serve a 15-year prison sentence.
President Cyril Ramaphosa would be shocked at the results of the May 8 general election, Democratic Alliance leader Mmusi Maimane said on Friday.
“[I] ask him about [African National Congress secretary-general] Ace Magashule, he will say he is shocked; I ask him about state capture, ‘I am shocked’ . When I asked him about [deputy president] David Mabuza ‘I am shocked’; when asked about Jacob Zuma, ‘I am shocked’. I want to tell him one story on May 8 – when I ask him about the election, he will say, ‘I am shocked’.
He said the DA would instead increase the state child support grant to R800, adding that South African Airways should be sold so that the money could be used to pay for grants. Former City of Cape Town mayor De Lille joined the DA with her Independent Democrats party members years ago and when she recently left the DA, took a number of ID members to form Good.
