Herman Mashaba is no epidemiologist, but he reckons he might just have the perfect ‘vaccine’ to remove the ANC from power.

Former Johannesburg Mayor and leader of Action SA, Herman Mashaba, has rallied South Africans to ‘join together’ and remove the ANC from power during the next cycle of elections. Making reference to the COVID-19 vaccines, the firebrand politician suggested that the ruling party could be removed from power – via a ‘two-jab approach’.

Herman Mashaba wants to ‘double-jab’ the ANC

Mashaba left the DA almost two years ago, after falling out with the party’s hierarchy. In that time, he has formed his own path back into politics, and he’s now looking to achieve more success with his new party. Action SA, who have attracted the likes of Vytjie Mentor and Makhosi Khoza to their set up, plan a competitive tilt at the 2021 Local Elections:

ActionSA prepare for Local Elections – whenever they may be

However, there are still some doubts in place as to when exactly the 2021 Local Elections will take place. An IEC-sanctioned commission recommended that the vote should be pushed back to early 2022, allowing more people to get vaccinated while also avoiding the creation of any super-spreader events.

Herman Mashaba, not missing the opportunity for some pandemic-themed wordplay, told crowds on Thursday that the battle to defeat the ANC requires two jabs – the first will come during the Local Government Elections, where ActionSA hope to unseat members of the ruling party at a regional level. The second will be voting them out of power nationally.

“With our vaccines, we need two jabs. I believe that is the same with the ANC government. The first jab has to start with the upcoming Local Government Elections, and we will finish this with a second jab at the [2024 National Elections]. I hope we can all join as one, and act as the effective vaccine that is going to save this country.”
