NATIONAL ASSEMBLY TUESDAY, 19 MARCH 2019

At the heart of 1994 was the promise of a better life for all, but what we have seen through corruption, high unemployment, load shedding, Bosasa, state capture, the Arms Deal, Marikana, Life Esidimeni, and nine wasted years falls short of a better life for all. It is, in fact, a better life for some.

Therefore, as the ANC comes to the podium today to try and brush up on its manifesto launch, it is clear that the ANC is no longer equal to the task of governing this country. [Interjections.] Whilst our people live in hope on a daily basis, the ANC, on the flipside, fails them, unrelentingly.

It therefore begs the question: What should South Africans do on 8 May? Well, vote for the ANC to get out of office! [Interjections.] Your time has expired. You've had 25 years. All we have to show for it is what you have achieved for yourselves and not what you have achieved for our people.
