Loading player...
At BNIC#2 in Hermanus, political commentator Prince Mashele delivered a hard-hitting Q&A session warning that South Africa stands at a historic “realignment moment.” He predicted the ANC will fall below 20% by 2029, with voters eager to punish the party. Mashele urged South Africa’s elites to step into politics to replace what he called “scoundrels” in parliament, stressing that only leadership, unity, and meritocracy can rescue the country from collapse. He dismissed Jacob Zuma’s MK party as a family rent-collection scheme destined to implode, and argued that black and white South Africans are increasingly ready to co-govern.
