DA wants power 'by all means necessary' - ANC
28 August 2017
Cape Town – The DA's call for "emergency elections" undermines the Constitution and is a refusal to accept defeat at the polls, the ANC said on Monday.
"This uncontrollable desire for power by all means necessary is a desperate attempt to bring back apartheid," spokesperson Zizi Kodwa said.
The Constitution provides for national and provincial elections every five years.
The DA's call was therefore nothing else but a "smash and grab", which must be rejected and condemned, he said.
