Johannesburg – President Jacob Zuma’s comment that the ANC comes before the country is irresponsible, the Economic Freedom Fighters said on Sunday.

“The idea that ANC is above or comes first before South Africa is testimony that we are heading for dictatorship and the death of multiparty democracy because it means they are prepared to become one party state,” EFF spokesperson Mbuyiseni Ndlozi said in a statement.

“This is the language of dictators who think they hold monopoly of wisdom and are indispensable.”

He said the EFF believed that the country came first and urged South Africans to “reject” the ANC.

Speaking at the African National Congress KwaZulu-Natal conference on Saturday, Zuma said he believed his party came before the country.
