DA-ANC Standoff in SA: DA Must Decide Whether It's Part of Coalition Gov't or Opposition Within Executive, ANC SaysThe DA has the right to oppose budget votes for certain ANC ministers, but it "is an attempt to disrupt" the work of the Government of National Unity (GNU), ANC Spokeswoman Mahlengi Bhengu-Motsiri stated.On Saturday, the DA announced its withdrawal from President Ramaphosa's National Dialogue process, as well as its decision to vote against approving budgets for ANC ministers accused of corruption."It is rather surprising that the DA has chosen not to support the National Dialogue, not because they oppose its principles, but because a DA deputy minister was dismissed, not only for defying the president, but for also violating established rules," the ANC reacted in a statement.Formed after the 2024 elections, the GNU includes the ANC, the Democratic Alliance, and eight other parties, with the latter serving as the second-largest coalition member.
