‘Why I came back to the DA’

Jacobs has returned to the Democratic Alliance (DA) after witnessing the inner workings of the African National Congress (ANC), emphasizing that the DA's commitment to non-racialism, merit-based appointments, and adherence to the rule of law aligns more closely with his values. This move reflects his disillusionment with the ANC's perceived failures in these areas, highlighting a broader debate about governance and ethical standards in South African politics. His return to the DA could potentially influence other disillusioned party members and underscores the ongoing tension between the two major parties in the country.
