Things may not be the same as the previous elections’ national elections. The competition will be harder and tighter. As some people are no longer in trust of politically parties due to lack of service deliveries also lack of truth from politically parties.

The ANC score under 50% of voters support in the 2021 local government elections which means that  things will be harder for it in 2024 election. The ANC was followed by the DA which obtain 22% national, the third place was EFF which obtain 10.6 % the fourth there was IFP which was 5.9%.

The ANC vote share plunged to 42% in eThekwini Municipality. “The ANC did poorly across KwaZulu-Natal, the province rocked by the unprecedented  looting in  July 2021. The party’s support in KZN tanked from 57.7% in 2016 to 41.44% IN 2021 as the Inkatha Freedom Party staged a comeback in what is traditionary its strongest province. On overage, support for the ANC across the eight key metros declined by about 7%”, BER said.

While on the other hand Mabe share some motivating words. “When you into a coalition, it does not mean that you are a lesser government, it only means that you have spoken to parties that share some aspiration and ideals and have agreed to constitute a government who will be able to deliver service to our people. At the end of the day, political parties exist for one reason and that is better the lives of our people”, Mabe said
