BizNews Radio

In this edition of the Sunday Show, Neil de Beer, the President of the United Independent Movement (UIM), comments on the crisis in the Government of National Unity (GNU) following President Cyril Ramaphosa's signing of the Land Expropriation Bill and says Democratic Alliance (DA) leader John Steenhuisen “can't just now throw toys out of the cot; he has to now go to the table and see if he can save the GNU”. De Beer slams the attacks on Public Works Minister Dean MacPherson from Deputy President Paul Mashatile, ActionSA and the Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF). “I think he's taking away too many people's fat chow.” De Beer gives a peep into succession “battles” in both the DA and African National Congress (ANC) where word has it that there is “a female under the guiding light of Cyril Ramaphosa, whom he favours”. As for The Hawks raid on the office of DA Deputy Federal Chair JP Smith and another MMC, De Beer says there is “a clear GNU strategy attack…now filtering down to local government level”. De Beer warns that while the GNU is weakening, former President Jacob Zuma’s MKP is growing stronger. “MK is sitting and they are waiting for the right moment.” Lastly, he describes the fierce fighting in the eastern DRC in which at least eight SANDF soldiers have been killed.
