The Democratic Alliance (DA) in KwaZulu-Natal (KZN) has noted with concern a number of reckless statements being made in the public that want to see the collapse of the Government of Provincial Unity (GPU).
The DA believes that disputes are best resolved through dialogue and not through sound bites and statements.
While we hold the view that there are some extreme contradictions and double standards by other parties, we will not engage through the media on these matters.
The DA in KZN again reiterates its full support for our MEC’s in government and commends them for the work they are doing to root out corruption and deliver services to the people of our province. We are unapologetic in our determination to turn KwaZulu-Natal around from what the GPU inherited at the start of the 7th Administration.
Therefore, the DA calls on the IFP to convene a meeting between the GPU partners in the ANC and NFP, to come together in the interests of the people of KwaZulu-Natal to resolve any issues that may exist. This meeting should take place within the next two weeks and provide solutions on how issues of contention can be resolved.
The DA remains committed to the GPU and the people of KZN, and our colleagues that have been sent to government and portfolios will continue to do their work without fear or favor.
