ANC says there is no outperformance of the party in GNU
The African National Congress (ANC) on Wednesday rejected a news report which claimed that senior ANC members have complained that Democratic Alliance (DA) ministers in the Government of National Unity (GNU) are making the ANC “look bad” as DA Ministers supposedly outperform them.
The ANC said the report is completely without basis in fact nor is it even a narrative for the ANC national working committee (NWC) meeting.
“Several DA ministers, as well as Sport, Arts and Culture Minister Gayton McKenzie of the Patriotic Alliance, have been mopping the floor with the ANC, making its ministers appear "incompetent,” the report stated.
It further claimed that concerns were raised at a recent ANC NWC meeting in which party leaders heard some Ministers were fearful of engaging with the media.
The ANC explained that there was no such discussion about anybody outperforming the ANC in government.
“There was no such a discussion precisely because there is no such outperformance of the ANC by anybody,” the ANC noted.
All the initiatives announced by various departments in the past month are a continuation of the sixth administration policy programme, the party stated.
The ANC said it rejected the claims as “fabrications and a veiled attempt by the journalist, the so-called ‘insider’ and possibly the newspaper” itself to promote “falsehoods that cast another political party in better light.”
The ANC explained that the NWC worked only to prepare reports for the upcoming regular National Executive Committee meeting scheduled for August 1 to 3.
