Today we flighted our registration weekend poster in Stanford Road in the Northern Areas of Port Elizabeth. While doing this we highlighted the message that only the people of this country have the power to remove the failing ANC government come the 2019 national elections.
I was joined by Natasha Mazzone, DA Team One South Africa Spokesperson for State Capture, and Edmund van Vuuren, PE Northern Areas Constituency Leader.
South Africans have a last chance to register to vote in the elections on 26 and 27 January 2019 at their local polling stations.
The only way to remove the failing ANC government from its position of power is to register and to then vote for a DA government. Only the DA puts power in the hands of the people.
The economy of the country is in decline and the failing ANC has no answer to the extreme unemployment in South Africa.
In the Eastern Cape this crisis is clear to see. More than 750 000 people are unemployed in this province and more than 412 000 have given up looking for work. Education in the Eastern Cape is in a shambles and the crime rate amongst the highest in the country. The future of the people of the Eastern Cape is bleak under an ANC government.
In the Western Cape the DA government has grown the economy and lowered unemployment in the province. While in government in Nelson Mandela Bay, the DA and its coalition partners also decreased unemployment.
I urge all residents of the Eastern Cape to check their registration details.
You may not be able to vote where you live if your address is missing or incorrect at the Electoral Commission.
Check your registration details on http://check.da.org.za.
Only a DA government can lead the Eastern Cape to prosperity. We will fight corruption, create an honest and professional police service, create fair access to jobs, secure our borders, speed up basic service delivery and build One South Africa for All.
