Mashaba on being outside the GNU; his Joburg Mayoral predecessor, SA's new T&I boss Tao

- Self-made entrepreneur turned politician Herman Mashaba shares some uber truths in this interview with BizNews editor Alec Hogg - including deep concerns about his predecessor as Joburg Mayor taking over the key Trade & Industry portfolio. The way Mashaba sees it, the T&I job is way beyond the competency of ANC stalwart Parks Tao whose mess Mashaba inherited in Joburg. That R35bn in corrupt deals which Tao either didn’t, couldn’t or wouldn’t see.

Herman Mashaba knows firsthand that the ANC never play fair - so well-done on following your instincts ! How can the ANC party who only got 40% of South Africans voting for them take 76% of the governing positions in parliament and leave the 60% of voters who voted for other parties left with just over 23% of governing positions in parliament. It is time that all political parties hold the76% ANC parliamentary politicians governing South Africa accountable at every turn !😡
Love your attitude and bravery! We, who believe in the caring of taking SA forward to freedom and growth, like you, we stand with you all the way! ☘️👍☺️🙋🙏💖🌿
I am so glad you back Mashaba ♥️
I respect you and Action SA for standing for your beliefs and convictions
My leader. Glad I voted for you. There's nothing wrong with being a constructive opposition. We can't have everyone in bed together, seems a little dangerous. All the best. 💚
I don't regret voting for ActionSA.
The same goes for Finance minister Ramakgopa who was anc mayor of Tshwane (Pretoria) and left the municipality with a huge debt they're still struggling to overcome.
Is Ramokgopa the finance minister now?
@@molokomack332No, I don't think 🤔 so.
I stand by Herman 100% He is a true Democrat
Mashaba is correct. We don’t need this Joes full house of Deputy Ministers. It’s the start of financial embezzlement. They have already forgotten the taxpayers complaints. My President Cyril disappointed me in this one. Deputy Ministers have never been influential in Government Departments since our first Democratic government, they are just passengers at work.
I agree with you, but he had to appease his ANC followers by DEPLOYING ANC CADRES to get paid for sleeping or watching his back. He also had to be seen giving some leeway to DA to kind of keep them happy by allowing some DA people to be deputies. It's a load of Bull S$%^. We don't have enough money to pay wasteful salaries. The PEOPLE need money spent on services NOT idiots.
go action SA✅
Thank you for not giving my vote to the ANC... I don't regret voting for ActionSA
They're looking for a piece of the pie in Gauteng.
I don't think South Africans are ready for a party with integrity. We like popular individuals as long as they entertain us with song and dance and promises. I do not regret voting for ActionSA!
Thank you for not giving up Sir Mashaba #ACTIONSA
I voted ActionSA and am proud
Give that man a Bell's. What happened to all the Whistleblowers?
Iam so proud of Action SA,❤
Hi Herman, What about the illegal foreigners in South Africa? And now the extension of Zimbabwe permits. Can we held the minister to account and to enforce the law of deportations.
Action SA can do very well in 2026
I don’t understand why Herman says DA is not committed to poverty, look at the work they do in the western cape.
The problem is some of wc doesn't agree with you,I mean people from khayelisha,,,,and some township
Firstly all i can say is that you must open your eyes and then you will see that the DA is doing nothing to fight poverty , They are a party that thrives on rich backers who live in the leafy suburbs of Cape town and they dont give a fuck about the rest , they play with smoke and mirrors tactics . I am not saying that there must just be handouts to those that claim to be poor but there must be a total turn around in the way the things operate and a new resat of social order where the profit margins on foods and vital things that human being need like medical , housing and education need to be affordable to all and not just the rich and the rest live in shacks or like a huge section of the population where they live in debt constantly to service banks and those industries .
Where in Western cape? What have they improved?
You are speaking from a privileged perspective and I don't mean to offend you. Your comment suggests that you only truly know one side of the City which happens to be white dominated Hanover Park, Khayelitsha, Athlone... spend a day in any black community and come back to tell us what the DA has done from what you see and not what they ( DA ) tell you.
What!!? Which bubble to you live in?
Lesufi should take basic Maths lessons from Ms Gwarube. 34% of 11 is 3,74. Round up to 4. It's not 8
I think there are more people in the cabinet than there are in parliament!
Herman is making South Africans really worried about the Gauteng Goverment with the ANC there on its own basicaly 😢 And what of the National Goverment Trade Ministry ? I cry for my beloved country.😢 Herman Loves his country too.
Excellent and well said!! No Nonsense, very good!
One day you'll lead ..God help you
Mashaba showed South Africans that he is honest to the South Africans and very careful to just do.He sticks still to his leading policies.Keep it up Mr Mashaba.Action for SouthAfricans..
There are two cabinets - the one which is for show; the other which is the "inner cabinet which is for the looters. There is no correlation between the two.
As a person who voted for the party on three levels ( local, municipal, and national), I think the party should join the GNU. It won't help the party to stay on the sidelines.
Nothing the ANC does has any logic.
I feel so relieved for the three brothers.
He says ANC and DA deal was planned since 2018, he knew it but kept quite, now is 2024 he is spilling the beans. Mr Herman have timing
Yeah, and Alec lets him ramble on and doesn’t question him 🤷🏽♂️
insightful
I think Herman made a smart move by not participating in this grand coalition thats being masked as GNU. I look forward to him holding this gvnt accountable at all spheres and that might help expeditite service delivery. It is a bloated cabinet indeed and the President needed to keep his the DA "happy" while keeping a good balance of ANC cadres which is nothing new if we are being honest.
Side note: Everytime I read about the DA being the best performing in the WC as far as poverty eradication and service delivery, I always ask myself which WC cause I know for sure that the conditions of the people living in the townships are worsening each day, with sewerage systems running in the roads and around where people say, unless these services are meant for certain people living in more affluent areas???... 😏🤔🤔🤔
One of the ways to solve poverty is to create jobs. Not sure why Herman is saying DA is not committed to creating jobs. Jobs happen through investment. And investment, happens when a country can demonstrate that government works for its people, not for itself.
No govt works for people anywhere worse of all in Africa where even whites start behaving like blacks. I forgot to mention that there is corruption even in Europe n america
That is your president at his best and all the people working under him know him for that, from national, provincial, district, Metropolitan and local municipalities and that is why we are poorly served as a culture, that spirit is from the leader of the country himself. He knows his assignment which is not the country 's affairs and citizens.
For us to hear people that are this proud about this country of ours and who understand the country's position and determined to not be satisfied to lead citizens to accept vouchers from GNU we feel comfortable.
Strongs to you Herman.
Action SA welcome 🙏 🤗 now I feel the vibe thats what SA wanted a difficult journey but you all can make a difference ❤❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🌷🥀🌹🌹🌲🌲🍃🍂❤❤
Mr Mashaba you can do it
Everyone wants a piece of the ANC handout money pie
Sorry 43 deputy ministers ( 32 ministers)😡
I'm amazed at the party leaders who enjoy demeaning the D.A..why?? Concentrate on your own party..mk upset all these small parties..1..2.. seats...pwew!!! Bottom line there's far too many parties..they say they dnt want a position 🤔 these people are immature period..I hate S.african politics 🤮👎👎
South Africa has no politics but corruption
Herman Mashaba is his own person and doeant need to follow the sheep.... This way, he'll maintain his own identity and most likely, he'll feature a whole lot better in the next election.... 🎉
Spoken like a honorable loser, if this guy was ever serious about making positive changes in south Africa he would have swallowed his pride and stayed in the DA and used that as a platform to make the most difference. All he can do now is stand behind the spectator's rail and squeak.
Well as long as he is bad-mouthing my DA...... I'm not listening to him.
How could you let your votes down opposition benches does not help
Actionsa is currently in question because he is not involved in GNU also it is not involving itself with other opposition parties. Maybe he is taking orders from his master
9 years of Zuma was muxh better in South Africa than Ramaphosa ANC you really talking rubbish
Yes was better or you wanted to be treated like king zuma increase IRVS to south Africa people we have a University in mpumalanga because of zuma I'm sorry if you don't see anything good from him
The governent owns one hell of a lot of land. Why are the farms handed to black farmers not transfered in their names? So THAT land still belongs to the goverment? 😂
Sorry but action SA has no action in hiding its head in the sand
Easier to sit on the sideline and critisize. Scared to be part of the solution and replay the narrative without any positive contribution. Wasting taxpayers money.
Go and join GNU and fixed it, no chance sir
Biznews please educate your interviewees to put their laptop cameras higher up. on a level with their faces, rather than well below their faces. It's very uncomfotable to watch them like this.
The minister of mourn and grown
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Sorry Action SA but in your own words "one on one meetings and emails" from someone outside of the GNU means nothing in my opinion joining the GNU and as you say "didn't want Cabinet Positions" you would have been entitled to state your case and make your opinions heard within the GNU and possibly get other parties within the GNU to support you 🤔 just saying rather be inside than on the outside looking in😂
Yes...easy job, 100k pm ...go to parliament once a month, make some noise...
♥
The next President of South Africa.
😂😂😂
How...
What is your problem with MK i really don't understand.
He is trying to position himself as a better opposition more credible than the MK.
❤
Herman mashaba is polical finish, GNU is unstoppable
Land distribution.....
Mr. Mashaba please propose an amendment bill to fix the IEC because it is a timebomb (im not talking about MK lies). Lets make sure the IEC id infallible by the next election.
If u spare the IEC for fear of endorsing mk lies, then u don't understand that your country's democracy is more important than your hatred of mk-just grow up soon enough.
You KZN guys are the ones needing to grow up from tribalism. You complain of Indian racism. I have witnessed first hand how bad some Indians still treat black people in KZN. Zuma takes completely corrupt Indians from India and make them billionaires together with his children and you guys think Zuma is a good leader. I am Venda but i don't think CR17 is a good leader. Same WhatsApp group with Msholozi and ANC. ActionSA, IFP maybe Rise Mzansi and PA are better propositions. Im South African before I am my tribe. Who then needs to grow up? Use your mind
Cant this man get stuck into baragwanath, buy it from government and give it mashaba magic, come on herman,do 1 the rest will be plug ins.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣Mashaba views as insight. The reality is that Mashaba failed to advance the Corridors of Freedom groundwork already done by previous executive, and spend much of his time profiling himself as corruption buster than mayor in truth he lacked ideas and was out of his depth (a role he remains in to date).Where I would give Mashaba credit is on the investigating unit, but not on developing the city or doing anything for the residents and its citizens. Fact Jozi was far better under leadership of Tau than under Mashaba, and the bar of CoJ executive post Tau has remained low & gotten worse. What in truth are Mashaba achievements as Executive Mayor of CoJ?
You so 😮
You really don't know what you stand for Mashaba.Ans tou will never be a President of this country.
You not Africa man don't say Africa no more
Ha failed dismally
Mashaba is a puppet of DA we know that every time they dumped them
people are over wirh the buzz words "puppets" "racist" "white monopoly capital" "clever blacks" its unintelligent comentry
@duanecronje Thank you. Whenever anyone has a differing opinion, they run to these stupid words. They can't intellectually challenge anything.
Redress cannot occur outside of an ADMISSION of wrongs of apartheid.
Even Mr Masondo failed to clean and restore JHB CBD to its Glory
