The multiparty charter for South Africa, according to ANC Secretary-General Fikile Mbalula, does not intimidate or deter the ruling party.
The DA, IFP, FF Plus, ActionSA, United Independent Movement, Spectrum National Party, and Independent South African National Civic Organisation are part of the multiparty charter.
Its goal is to destabilise the ANC and keep the EFF out of a prospective national opposition coalition government after next year’s elections.
“We know outright majority win is not a given. We need to work for it and win the confidence of our people.
“There are many challenges our country is facing, but we know we have made some strides as the ANC and we remain focused with regards to that. When it comes to multiparty political agreements, we are just observing and are not deterred or intimidated,” Mbalula told SABC News.

“The upcoming election should focus on individual parties’ merits rather than a collective gang,” he said. “They have got diverse policy differences, they don’t believe literally in everything and you have to take coalition governments in local governments. South Africans should be really scared if they see something of that nature.”
Lesufi questioned why other political parties, such as the UDM, were no longer part of the charter.
“They cannot win [the] election on their own, so they need to gang up and invite people claiming to be independent only to be exposed they were hiding their political affiliation and being part of a gang of losers.”
