The Patriotic Alliance (PA) has officially withdrawn its threat to exit the Government of National Unity (GNU). The party had warned it would pull out if its deputy president, Kenny Kunene, was not reinstated to Johannesburg’s mayoral committee.
Patriotic Alliance Meeting with ANC Brings Breakthrough
Although Kunene has not yet been reinstated, the PA says its Tuesday night meeting with the African National Congress (ANC) was productive. According to the party, the discussions went beyond Kunene’s return and tackled broader issues affecting Gauteng province.

Kunene later addressed supporters on Facebook, saying: “But I think one must emphasise that this meeting has put to bed the issue of the resignation of the president [McKenzie] or us withdrawing from coalitions. It has put it to bed.”
