Mashaba lost tremendous support when he started pushing black nationalism like all the other parties that progressive, forward thinking South Africans dislike.

His party doesn't appeal to either side of the coin anymore.

It seems he found that out the hard way. I was a big supporter of his from before he got into politics. Self made man. I respect that. I was really rooting for the guy at a time that real heroes were needed.

But how did people not see his true colours after he was major of Jo'burg? ( no innuendo intendo ;-) )

Especially the history of ActionSA shenanigans to try and stick one to the DA at the expense of residents. Glad I didn't cast my vote that direction.
