DA’S ‘Moonshot Pact’ an admission of defeat: ANC KZN
The ANC in KZN says, by joining the Multi-Party Charter, some opposition parties have admitted defeat even before the election.
Last week, the leaders of seven of the country's parties met in Kempton Park to work together to unseat the ANC.
They struck a power-sharing deal.
ANC provincial secretary Bheki Mtolo believes it's clear the parties are not confident in their individual abilities to win next year's election.

Mtolo was speaking in Durban on Tuesday at a briefing on the outcomes of their recent PEC meeting.
"Others already have accepted defeat that they won't win the country, that is why they are planning a coalition before the elections a held.
"I think they are truthful. I thought they should be applauded because they are truthful to themselves. They know they won't win, not they are arranging a stokvel of some sort of government.
"Now, if you are a voter and you vote for a party that has already told you it is not going to win the country, why would you vote for that party?"
