This book explores the dynamics and future of coalition governments in South Africa, particularly in metropolitan areas from 2016 to 2021. It provides insights into the political shifts following the 2016 local government elections, which marked a significant change in the power structure, with the African National Congress (ANC) losing control over several metros and forming coalitions with opposition parties. The author, Mzwandile Masina, reflects on these developments, drawing from his experience as the Executive Mayor of Ekurhuleni. The work aims to analyze the implications of coalition governance on South Africa's political landscape, highlighting lessons learned and preparing for future elections. It is intended for policymakers, political analysts, and individuals interested in the evolution of South African politics.
