The dynamics of South African politics are indeed intriguing. This morning we’ll explore why parties with shared views on land restitution, black empowerment, and pro-poor policies couldn’t unite during coalition talks. The public has expressed its surprise at the ANC forming a coalition with the DA, IFP, Good, and PA, bypassing the EFF, ATM, or MK Party.

Guests: Mazibuko Jara, activist for social justice and democracy in SA, and Dr Ntando Sinande, public law lecturer and political commentator
