Solly Moeng: DA in danger of becoming the ANC

Loading player...
In his latest weekly chat with Chris Steyn, Political Commentator, Solly Moeng urges action from the Democratic Alliance (DA) over reports that the party is considering promoting Cape Town councillor - and fake doctor - Abdulkader “AK” Elyas to either Parliament or the Western Cape legislature despite guilty findings relating to the falsification of his qualifications. “If it doesn't act against him, it's going to be in trouble. Then… it's slowly, slowly becoming the ANC…. it's an accumulation of things that are happening in the DA space that are making it harder and harder to distinguish from the ANC.” Moeng also comments on the biggest ever pre- by-election crisis facing the African National Congress; President Cyril Ramaphosa’s impeachment inquiry stalling - yet again; the president’s failure to act against Special Leave Police Minister Senzo Mchunu; the dirt on Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) CIC Julius Malema emerging at the Madlanga Commission; and the court room altercation between tenderpreneur “Cat” Matlala and his fiery Advocate.
