In a recent interview on BizNews Radio, Dr. Frans Cronje, chairman of the Social Research Foundation, provided insights into the public's perception of the Government of National Unity (GNU) in South Africa, approximately 100 days after its formation. He reported a significant uptick in support for the ANC, which has risen from 40% to 45% in voter preference, suggesting a potential return to over 50% if current trends continue. While the DA has also seen slight gains, concerns remain for smaller parties like the EFF, which has lost considerable support. Cronje emphasized that while both the ANC and DA appear to be performing well within the GNU, the future depends on the government's ability to deliver tangible improvements in citizens' lives. If they fail to do so, the shifting sentiments among moderate voters could open the door for a resurgence of more radical parties.
