The ANC has played the role of a “Father Christmas” government which provides free services but citizens blame the party for everything, forgetting their responsibilities, says ANC SG Fikile Mbalula.
Responding to Sunday Times journalist Kgothatso Madisa on the Sunday Times Politics Weekly podcast on the prospects of next year’s elections, Mbalula said they know what to do to not drop below 50%, but the party’s achilles heel is governance.
It has become the norm to apportion the blame in every service delivery failure, mismanagement and maladministration to ANC, he said. However, “We are not in total control.”
