The MK Party says Ramaphosa's address was an abuse of his power as it came just before voting.
The MK Party says it is an abuse of power as the speech was delivered just a day before the special votes.Party spokesperson, Nhlamulo Ndhlela says they are committed to a free, fair, and transparent electoral process.
“The president, in this case, is abusing his power by leveraging state infrastructure for partisan reasons and partisan gains, in the sense that, you know, the president had made the state of the nation at risk. The president effectively now uses his presidential power to call on all media outlets in the midst of the eve of an election day, or Election Day, and effectively campaign for his party – and that is abuse of office and his power.
“The president remains the president until a new president is elected and inaugurated, so his duties don’t end. The duties of the state continue even as we go into elections. So, I don’t know if this hullabaloo about the president’s address to the nation has any legal basis. I don’t think it has any legal basis.”
