Political analyst, Prince Mashele has revealed that there is a blind spot that many people are not able to see which is the possibility of Julius Malema becoming deputy president through alliance with Paul Mashatile.
The political analyst said Economic Freedom Fighters are targeting to remove president Cyril Ramaphosa and pushing for Paul Mashatile to become the deputy president of South Africa, as they have an agenda.
He said if Paul Mashatile is appointed as the deputy president of South Africa, he will become the president once Cyril Ramaphosa’s term of office comes to an end, or if he is forced to step down due to the step aside guidelines of the ANC.
Ramaphosa’s Phala Phala scandal is still far from over, and this could mean that Paul Mashatile is most likely going to achieve his ambition sooner or later. Mashatile is the same ANC comrade who is seen as a better alliance partner by the Economic Freedom Fighters.
The Political analyst said if next year the ANC fails to attain 50% in the elections, then this could pave way for ANC alliance with the red berets. He adds that this will see Julius Malema becoming the deputy president of South Africa through that alliance.
“They are targeting Cyril Ramaphosa, they are not targeting the entire ANC. They want Ramaphosa out. It is a personal thing between Julius and Ramaphosa.
“EFF have a good relationship with Paul Mashatile and the ANC leadership in Gauteng. If you watch the deal they are making, they have a deal with the ANC leadership of Gauteng. They are busy bringing back ANC in the metros,” said Prince Mashele.
The political analyst said because of this deal, if ANC gets below 50% and EFF gets 10%, this will see Malema becoming deputy president, while Paul Mashatile becomes the president.
