ActionSA leader Herman Mashaba says in the case of a coalition, he can work with all political parties except the ANC.

In an exclusive interview with TimesLIVE, he said he would not work with the ANC in any structure of government, calling the ruling party “the devil”.

“Anyone wanting to work with the ANC, that basically means you’re going to cover up ANC corruption,” he said.

Mashaba said the governing party’s focus since it came into power has been on stealing and renaming streets and buildings.

Mashaba also did not mince his words about the battle between his party and the Electoral Commission (IEC). 

“The IEC is playing games with the future of this country. They are a chapter 9 institution that needs to be independent,” he said.
