President Jacob Zuma warned ANC supporters against what he calls parties formed out of anger. Zuma was leading a high-level ANC group on a Youth Month campaign visit to historic Orlando West in Soweto ahead of next year’s elections.

Zuma’s warning comes days after expelled ANC Youth League President Julius Malema said he hoped to form a new party, in a move reminiscent of the COPE breakaway a few years ago. Zuma told the ANC faithfuls that the ANC is the only organisation formed by the people for the people.

“It was not formed by people who believed in something else, or who were angry about something else, but people who were coming together to meet challenges that faced the nation. This is your organisation. This is the organisation you must keep, strengthen. You must vote for.”

On Wednesday, ACDP Leader Kenneth Meshoe said opposition parties stood a good chance to form a coalition government after the 2014 elections, should expelled ANC Youth League President Julius Malema form a new political party.

“Because he is going to take some membership from the ruling party. Particularly his language of economic empowerment, economic freedom, he is appealing to many young people who are jobless.”

The ANC in parliament refused to comment on Meshoe’s assertions that a coalition government would be possible, should Malema form this new political party.
