'If we reward the current party with more votes we are telling them it is okay to steal from us.'
Speaking to a Jewish congregation in Sandton on Sunday, he said voting for the ANC in the upcoming general elections will send the party a message that"it is okay" to steal from South Africans. He said the best future is one of a coalition government.
"There can be a coalition of citizens who share values, values of constitutionalism, values of a market-based economy, values of a capable state and the eradication of state capture … I think it's a mistake to think that coalitions don't work. A one-party dominant state has meant that we end up with state capture," he said. Maimane emphasised that SA needed political reform.
