On DA-EFF coalition

WHEN National Party leaders like Pik Botha, Piet Koornhof, Marthinus van Schalkwyk and many others joined the ANC, and Nelson Mandela had tea in Orania with apartheid architect’s wife, Bettie Verwoerd, nobody accused Mandela or the ANC of being sellouts.

They are sellouts who in their haste to get political power gave away revolution­ary gains during the Convention for a Democratic SA (Codesa). – Mncedisi Ngcwayi

ANC leaders and supporters seem to suffer from amnesia. They are quick to blame the EFF for selling out by voting for the DA to keep the ANC out of power. They forget how they embraced the National Party to weaken the then Democratic Party. – Z Sixolo, Soweto

ANC supporters who express shock that the EFF helped the “racist DA” win the metros should realise that their organisati­on has sunk so low that even socalled racists are a preferred option for revolution­aries like the EFF. – Mathye, Mofolo

I DON’T believe people who say the DA and the EFF are going to take the country back to apartheid. How? Can these people explain. – Anonymous

On school registrati­on

OUR government is taking us back to apartheid. This online registrati­on puts our children at schools we do not want. You can’t take your child to a shack of a school because you want the minister of education to be happy. l am so sad. – Anonymous
