SOUTH AFRICA’S former ambassador to Cuba has warned the Communist Party against breaking alliance with the ANC and going it alone in the elections.
Former South African Communist Party (SACP) Limpopo provincial secretary Phatse Justice Piitso’s open letter to the party’s second deputy general secretary Solly Mapaila was published yesterday by the New Age, the country’s only pro-ANC newspaper.
Mr Mapaila told the weekend City Press newspaper that breaking the 80-year-old alliance with the ANC “is almost a fait accompli” ahead of the party’s congress this summer.
