  • The frustrated SACP announced last week that they would be contesting the upcoming 2026 local government elections alone without the ANC.

The South African Communist Party (SACP) has reassured that its members deployed in the Cabinet remain secure despite uncertainties regarding the future of the Tripartite Alliance, which includes the African National Congress (ANC), the Congress of South African Trade Unions (COSATU), and the SACP. This statement comes in light of recent political shifts, including the ANC's failure to secure a majority in the elections, leading to speculation about potential changes in government composition. SACP's Solly Mapaila emphasized the party's commitment to its principles and its role within the alliance, indicating that while the political landscape might be evolving, the SACP's position and influence within the government are not immediately threatened. The party is also preparing for its upcoming 16th National Congress, where these issues might be further deliberated.
