ANC support slips, new MK Party makes inroads, EFF backing slumps – Ipsos ...
Quick Glance: Support for South Africa's ANC around 40% before elections
  • An Ipsos poll revealed that support for South Africa's governing African National Congress (ANC) has dropped to just over 40%, weeks before an election that could bring about significant political change.

  • While the ANC is still expected to secure the most votes on May 29, falling below 50% would require seeking coalition partners to govern, marking the first such alliance since Nelson Mandela led the party to power 30 years ago.

  • The survey was based on face-to-face interviews with 2,545 registered voters across all nine provinces in March and April, boasting a margin of error of 1.9% at a 95% confidence level.

  • The poll also highlighted rising voter discontent due to issues like unemployment, corruption, crime, and poor services, with the ANC considering potential coalition partners such as the economically liberal DA and the far-left Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF).

Quick Glance: EFF's Shivambu as Finance Minister Would Truly Spook the Markets
  • In typical EFF fashion, politician Julius Malema recently made the controversial statement that the EFF would only consider a coalition with the ANC after the elections if EFF deputy president Floyd Shivambu is appointed finance minister.

  • DA leader John Steenhuisen did not mince his words at the recent launch of his party’s Western Cape manifesto in Paarl, in the Drakenstein Municipality.

  • Steenhuisen warned that under a coalition with Shivambu as finance minister, the EFF would unleash its destructive economic policies to turn South Africa into the next Venezuela or Zimbabwe.

  • Investment strategist Izak Odendaal from Old Mutual Wealth says it is unlikely that Shivambu would take on what is arguably the most important Cabinet position, even in the event of an ANC-EFF coalition.

  • Former president Jacob Zuma once more faced defeat in his efforts to have lead prosecutor advocate Billy Downer removed from his arms-deal corruption case.

  • During proceedings on Wednesday, Pietermaritzburg high court judge Nkosinathi Chili dismissed Zuma's request, citing insufficient evidence that Downer's involvement could violate Zuma's right to a fair trial.

  • Despite the unfavorable outcome, Zuma intends to lodge an appeal and suggests pausing the trial indefinitely to strategize the next steps.

  • Following Downer's insistence on setting trial dates promptly, both parties agreed to delay the trial until a 'pretrial conference' scheduled for May 17.
