The multiparty charter consists of the DA, IFP, FF Plus, ActionSA, United Independent Movement, Spectrum National Party and Independent South African National Civic Organisation with a sole purpose of dethroning the ANC and to keep the EFF out of a possible national opposition coalition government after next year's national elections.

Ahead of the national elections in 2024, Mbalula has also revealed that the ANC is aware that receiving an outright majority in the 2024 will not be easy.

"We know outright majority win is not a given but we need to work for it and win the confidence of our people, there are many challenges our country is facing, but we know we have made some strides as the ANC and we remain focused with regard to that and when it comes to multiparty political agreements, we are just observing and are not deterred or intimidated," Mbalula said.

Meanwhile, ANC Gauteng chair Panyaza Lesufi alluded that the charter was not sustainable and is made up of parties that could not win an election on their own.

They cannot win the election on their own, so they need to gang up and invite people claiming to be independent only to be exposed they were hiding their political affiliation and being part of a gang of losers," Lesufi added.
