JOHANNESBURG - South Africa is waiting for the outcome of a meeting between the ANC and DA leaders on Friday after the DAs involvement in the Government of National Unity hit a stumbling block earlier.

One ministry may be a make or break in the talks.

The DA was offered six ministries including the Trade industry and Competition Ministry.

But after the DA wanted more and President Ramaphosa met with ANC officials, the President has reportedly taken that ministry off the table.

The Black Business Council says it commends President Ramaphosa for his bold and courageous leadership for insisting that the Department of Trade Industry and Competition is not allocated to the DA.

The CEO of the BBC, Kganki Matabane discussed this with eNCA.
