  • Politically Aweh, South Africa's cheekiest satirical news show, is back with a fresh episode in which funny guy KG Mokgadi asks probing questions of the biggest newsmakers and movers and shakers in politics.

The article from MSN discusses an interview with Herman Mashaba, the leader of ActionSA, where he addresses the complexities of identity politics and the evolving political landscape in South Africa. Mashaba criticizes the use of identity politics by other parties, arguing that it divides rather than unites the nation. He emphasizes ActionSA's focus on policy-driven solutions to tackle issues like unemployment, crime, and corruption, rather than exploiting racial or ethnic divisions. Mashaba also talks about the need for new political tactics to engage with a disillusioned electorate, highlighting his party's efforts to build a broad-based coalition that transcends traditional racial and economic lines. He expresses concerns about the current political environment, where established parties are losing ground, and new strategies are essential for political survival and effectiveness.
