  • The ANC says it will not remove ministers of the South African Communist Party ( SACP) from the cabinet despite its alliance partner's decision to contest the 2026 local government elections alone.

The South African Communist Party (SACP) has decided to contest the 2026 local government elections independently, a move that has sparked discussions within the Tripartite Alliance, which includes the African National Congress (ANC), the SACP, and the Congress of South African Trade Unions (Cosatu). Despite this decision, the ANC has stated that it will not recall the SACP ministers from their positions in the government. ANC secretary-general Fikile Mbalula emphasized that the SACP's participation in the elections does not necessitate their removal from Cabinet, highlighting the importance of maintaining unity within the alliance. This stance comes amidst ongoing debates about the implications of the SACP's electoral strategy on the alliance's cohesion and the broader political landscape in South Africa.
