The DA’s Helen Zille has raised concerns over the Government of National Unity’s allegiance, questioning if business interests are being prioritised over public welfare in South Africa. File Picture: Armand Hough / Independent Newspapersrecently disclosed that the DA was instructed by business interests to protect President Cyril Ramaphosa from the Economic Freedom Fighters , though she emphasised that protecting Ramaphosa was not the DA's role.

However, the party’s stance shifted when the EFF introduced a resolution during the first parliamentary session to initiate impeachment proceedings. South Africa continues to face a high cost of living, unemployment, crime, gender-based violence, service delivery shortfalls, and widespread inequality.

Seepe also questioned whether the DA–ANC coalition prioritises business over the welfare of the marginalised population, suggesting that democracy is being sacrificed to serve big business interests. “The ANC knows this but is desperate to cling to power,” he added.
