While the ANC's statement might appear as a defensive reaction, it bears a larger, more troubling reality: the DA's long-standing opportunism. For years, the DA has played a dual game—positioning itself as the most vocal critic of the ANC while simultaneously sharing in the country's governance through the GNU.

The article from MSN discusses the current political tensions in South Africa involving the Government of National Unity (GNU). The Democratic Alliance (DA) has been accused of opportunism by the African National Congress (ANC), particularly after the DA demanded key cabinet positions in the GNU. The ANC, led by President Cyril Ramaphosa, has issued an ultimatum to the DA, warning that their demands could jeopardize the formation of the GNU. The DA's insistence on significant roles, including the Deputy President position, has led to a deadlock in negotiations. The ANC has expressed frustration over the DA's approach, suggesting that their demands are not in the spirit of unity and cooperation needed for the GNU. This situation has raised concerns about the stability and future of the GNU, with the ANC emphasizing the need for compromise and a focus on national interest rather than party politics.
