PRESSURE mounts from the ANC National Working Committee (NEC) for President Cyril Ramaphosa to deal with DA ministers who did not support the 2025 National Budget.

ANC demands action against DA ministers after budget rejection

Sources told IOL that the ANC Parliament caucus was not impressed with how the DA voted against the budget while they are a big fish in the Government of National Unity (GNU).

Although insiders could not confirm the exact decision by the NEC, the ministers are potentially to be without jobs.

The ANC is expected to convene a special NEC meeting on Monday to deliberate on the way forward following recent developments in Parliament.

The NEC, the highest decision-making body of the ANC between conferences, will consider critical matters affecting governance and the national political landscape.

"The NEC will decide on what to do with the DA because what they are doing is unacceptable. The members are not happy with this behaviour and some want the DA totally out of the GNU.
