ANC member allegedly points gun at DA campaigner
“ANC intolerance in Gauteng is running at an all-time high, as it is becoming more and more evident that voters are shifting their support to the DA in their numbers.
“There is no such thing as a no-go area, and the DA will campaign and take our vision for Johannesburg where we want, when we want to. No member of the ANC or any other political party will dictate otherwise,” said Mashaba.
