ANC Youth League president Collen Malatji has asked President Cyril Ramaphosa to remove Democratic Alliance ministers from the Government of National Unity.

ANC Youth League president Collen Malatji has asked South African President Cyril Ramaphosa to remove Democratic Alliance (DA) ministers from the government, IOL reported. He also called on the Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) to “start preparing and behaving” if the party wants to join the Government of National Unity, formed after the 2024 general elections.
Collen Malatji spoke on Thursday at a press conference at Luthuli House in Johannesburg, amid tensions between the ANC and the DA.
