ANC on course to lose majority in South Africa's seismic election • FRANCE 24 English

The African National Congress looked set on Thursday to lose the parliamentary majority it has held for 30 years, as partial election results suggested it would need a partner to stay in power - a first in South Africa's post-apartheid history. If the final results confirm the loss of its majority, the ANC will be forced to make a deal with one or more other parties to govern - a situation that could lead to political volatility in the coming weeks or months.

ANC put themselves in that position by not serving the people of South Africa honestly.

I'm a Democracy Fundamentalist. I put my life on the line in Angola in the 1980's, for Democracy. Now South Africa is no longer a "One-party-democracy". We're growing up.

NHI signing was the nails in their coffin

ANC is led by the party, not the people.

That the anc is losing its majority is good news for our country. What would be even better is that the anc should of gotten far less than 42% of the votes. The other issue is if the anc is going to form a collision government with another party?With which party will it be? Collosion governments are never that succesful. The party with the majority can still push its will on the citizens of the country.

Looked at the commission’s website and it shows the ANC with 42% of the vote with the DA in second with 29% and a battle for third between both the MK and the EFF with 9% for both. These results from 38% of the stations reported so far.

No matter what happens with the election, chinas interest will remain safe.

Thirty years in power would ruin any party except Sweden's Social Democrats.
