Bongani speaks to Dr Ntsikelelo Breakfast, Political Analyst, about a whirlwind week in South African politics that felt more like a drama series but with consequences that shape the nation’s future.New research suggests the ANC may retain control of only Limpopo and the Eastern Cape by 2029, with Mpumalanga and the Free State potentially slipping into coalition territory. Malusi Gigaba says this week’s national dialogue should’ve been delayed to avoid becoming another “talk shop,” pointing to the country’s struggle with translating talk into tangible action. Meanwhile, Trade Minister Parks Tau promises a revised trade offer to the US, with hopes pinned on meaningful economic impact. And in a defiant moment, Patriotic Alliance leader Gayton McKenzie refuses to apologise for past racist posts, even if President Ramaphosa himself were to ask.
