I'm glad that I didn't skip this video. This analyst is on fire.

Absolutely stunning coverage of the elections from this platform! Ayeye!!!

[@collenrungano6716]

Some of us cautioned the ANC when Jacob Zuma was being victimised by the legal system of this country. That was a big mistake. People are not fools, you cant abuse a hero of the people in broad daylight and expect to get away with it. This is pay back time

[@marcopeel]

He is a corrupr criminal though. The fact that he is a popular corrupt criminal just means South Africans love their politicians corrupt and untouchable. This just worsens things for SA

[@SydneyD28-6]

One interesting aspect of these elections as far as Ramaphosa is concerned, is that, capital has been quite confident with him, thus they will protect and even retain him by all means. Therefore, a coalition of ANC-DA is a high possibility, with John becoming a deputy President.

[@lihlexuza4181]

Great facts brother, hopefully those coalitions will be about to put people first

[@maropinini1262]

2024 is the new 1994 🇿🇦, I hope the National Coalition Government won't be as chaotic as the Local Government Coalitions have proven to be. National Coalition Government should be based on Principles which are service-delivery-oriented, instead of Positions of Power orientation which is self-serving and self-enriching. Politicians MUST SERVE THE PEOPLE, not themselves nor their "special interests" Funders for stomach politics

The most fascinating thing about these elections, is finding out whether South Africans have voted for Socialism or neoliberalism. That should tell us which coalition government will likely succeed.

[@letlhogonoloaulstonmorwakg7379]

Fighters don't be demoralized, our big election is in 2029, we've made a point. The ANC will not reach the 50% mark that I'm certain of at this point. They losing 4 Provinces as we stand, this is excluding Western Cape of course. We still await big wards of the eff in joburg, Pretoria, Durban, Kimberley etc.

EFF crashed unfortunately this election :( we need new leadership. malema is a flip flopper sorry to say

It is well documented that KZN is Zuma's territory so I do not really get it when people get overexcited over his lead there. Will the MK replicate this performance in other provinces? I doubt it!

[@enricodipasquale6316]

Citizens in our country who voted anc once again have not learned their lesson yet. Why vote for the government who let our country and citizens down again ? The anc has so far lost its majority. That means that they will have to form an collision government with another political party to govern again. This is very dissapointing and sad news for our citizens and country because nothing will really change for the better. The anc will still be in the position to force their idealogy on the country and its citizens. Why on earth vote for a party who screwed up our country and economy? Totally idiotic i whould say. These voters dont want change and didnt think what is yhe best for our citizens and country. Just like a lost sheep following the anc blindly.

Who is this man, Jacob Gedleyihlekisa Mhlanganyelwa Zuma? I think we need a 2-hour documentary about him. Let's not hate the man but appreciate him. He is one of the best politicians we have ever had. Remember, he is the most popular and loved president South Africa has ever had since its formation, including the apartheid prime ministers. SMWX, please, please do a documentary about this man. It would be good to do it while he is still alive. Cover his early life, life in the struggle, life before he became an ANC senior member, his journey to the presidency, his life after the presidency, and now.
