Cyril Must Fire Gwede Mantashe NOW

Is Gwede Mantashe untouchable in the ANC?
On this episode of **This Is Politics**, Justice Malala and Mondli Makhanya look at the controversies surrounding one of the ANC’s most powerful figures. From his battles within the party and his comments about young people to questions about mining licences and allegations involving ANC councillors in the platinum belt, the discussion looks at how much power Mantashe holds and where accountability comes in.
The conversation also turns to the economy and Finance Minister Enoch Godongwana’s latest budget. Is South Africa finally getting its economic house in order? And even if things are stabilising, what does that mean for the millions of people still struggling to find work and keep up with the cost of living? Justice and Mondli discuss what it will take to get the economy growing faster, attract investment and create real opportunities for ordinary South Africans.
They also get into South Africa’s shrinking refinery capacity, Dangote’s plans for the oil industry and whether anti-foreigner sentiment could put much-needed investment at risk.
With local government elections approaching, the bigger question is whether anyone is being held accountable for what happens in this country. Who is delivering, who is failing, and why do some politicians seem to survive every controversy?
**This Is Politics** looks at South African politics, the people who hold power and how their decisions affect the rest of us.
