DA TO GO NUCLEAR?

Zille claims motion of no confidence against Cyril will break government

- BY SIMON MAJADIBODU

DEMOCRATIC Alliance Federal Council Chairperson Helen Zille says the party has a motion of no confidence against President Cyril Ramaphosa ready, but is cautious about using it, warning it could collapse the government.

"I very much doubt it," Zille said when asked whether the ANC could survive such a motion if the DA were to proceed.

She was speaking to journalists outside the Cape Town Central police station, where the DA was filing criminal charges against Higher Education Minister Nobuhle Nkabane.

Misleading

Nkabane is accused of misleading Parliament and abusing her position by allegedly facilitating ANC cadre deployment in the appointment of Sector Education and Training Authority (SETA) board members.
