Mashaba told The Citizen yesterday talks between the two organisations are at a sensitive level. Operation Dudula is also a registered political party.

He said he had a "productive" two-hour meeting with Operation Dudula leaders two weeks ago.

"Can I be allowed to cross the bridge when I get to it? You can imagine that it would not look good talking to people and getting into negotiations in bad faith," he said. "I do not want to predetermine the outcome. I would not want to be placed in that situation.

"Whatever arrangement we come to with Dudula, we will make an announcement. If not, it's fine. We will find a way to work together."
