Before I judge the debate I would like to set the record...I come from Eastern Cape and I am now in the Western Cape. And in as much as I hate to say this- the WC government is doing things I have never even imagined in EC. - In the EC I have never seen rubish removal in the sqauter areas, I have never see toilets being cleaned in EC. You can hardly even see toilets in sqauter areas. In the WC they are cleaned almost every 2 days. City police in the EC are only available when there are politicians around- in the WC you cannot go 2KM without spotting policeman on duty. Searching and stopping cars. We can all be honest, people are running away from poverty created by the ANC in EC to seek economic freedom in WC.

I’m listening to the intro and listening to ANC motivate why we must vote for them. It’s hard convincing someone born in 1994 with that stance. It doesn’t appeal to the youth because we more liberal and require tangible evidence which they have failed. And it’s for that reason why they won’t get support from the “ama 2000” era. A discussion that’s hardly had is one where the ANC hasn’t really “created” new votes. They have always been reliant on the masses of 1994 when our mothers and grandparents voted. That class is dwindling through natural causes and old age. Imagine how many 60yr olds voted in 1994… most have passed on. 50yr olds etc… Failing to lobby the younger generation is and will be their downfall.

Listen carefully first he says the ANC grew the economy 4 times (1 becomes 4), then later they grew the economy with 4 digits (1 becomes 10000) ??? Is this the best the leaders our ANC have, ofcourse they will be happy with themselves, the math shows it 😂😂😂😢😢. Where is our leaders, that can hold their ground😢😢😢😢

[@RungeCarl]

This ANC clown is the best they have.

[@mpilompanza9101]

😂😂😂😂😂

[@leilahakulinen]

​@RungeCarl, in my books, Fikile Mbalula AKA "the motormouth", takes the top 🤡 position.

[@MaximilienDanton]

The four digits was based on how their personal bank accounts grew

[@lindylambis4828]

Zone in on the Anc guys face when Edwin Sodi was mentioned. Guilty!!!!

[@JSepa]

This is the best and brightest the ANC has to offer, no wonder South Africa is in such a bad state. You should also have asked why all the anc top leaders are black.

[@nasheenaramnarain2945]

DA won hands down. Excellent representative. Spoke sense answered the questions to the point.

[@mohaleSlebea776]

One organisation downplay corruption, lack of service delivery, economic collapse, crime and many other negative social effects while the other downplay racism. You should have invited Sihle Lonzi to deal with them

[@matthewdilley8638]

The Anc is a joke definitely lost the debate.

[@bradleysparg69]

The DA Guy is well spoken and Knows his Stuff... Well done .

[@shabangu1234]

The young ANC Youth League leader is good as a person and did quite, but the ANC baggage makes it a hard sell. The DA Youth leader did well and, in fact won the debate. It is not difficult to win a debate against the ANC, CV under the current circumstances, which is a pity, if one thinks if the ANC's erstwhile illustrious history.

[@kathleenreabow5560]

Shame the ANC guy still harping on apartheid and its always someone elses fault for their bad governance. DA wants to build south africa with all races not just ANC caders.

[@stephenmolefe7443]

DA guy you are best

[@ceciliamungofa7374]

Strong views there. Well done young men. Thx Sizwe.

[@pettigrewtristan]

Yes MK and EFF please. Take us back to the Mesozoic ages. Screw commonsense, the first world has nothing on us. We strive in Africa to be more paleolithic. Viva Comrade viva!!!! Viva disinvestment viva!!!! Huba huba!!!!

The guy from the ANC should actually reaf the budget of the DA IN THE WESTERN CAPE.

[@Alkabulan54]

Please bring EFF and the DA before elections Sizwe, I wanna see something.

Who is in government who is the president or cabinet

[@bonanijula6351]

Bringing back the good debate nice🤗

Ayeye!

[@leilahakulinen]

In the last 3 minutes the ANCYL SG stated that ANC was fervently fighting AGAINST CORRUPTION but we are yet to see any of those found GUILTY at the ZONDO COMMISSION'S report still being prosecuted😡

[@moyahabo3494]

The sad part about ANC rhetoric.. Is that it trickle's from the head to the bottom.. Same non accountable, no clear plan, stuck record rhetoric.. Whiskey talks in cigar rooms is what they all reciting. Cry the beloved country.

[@johanintaiwan]

4 digits growth under ANC😱

[@MaximilienDanton]

After the comma

[@MamaMama-kq1fx]

Who to be blame is the party in government or opposition .

[@Mondeor218]

Can we get a version of this where we have political parties acknowledge what the others do well? I also like the point of Camps bay vs Philippi when you have Sandton vs Alexandria. We really have common problems and neither party has a silver bullet. Without acknowledging our own deficiencies on the political stage it serves to highlight that our politicians won't be the ones to solve our problems. Democracy needs to be about active citizenry and not finger pointing.

[@jamiemcmahon7707]

Eish we need more ANC exposure like this !!! DA all the way

[@bafanamahlatse1923]

We need an eff Vs da debate
