They were making a lot of decisions that were taking the ANC away from where we needed it to be. They were not correcting anything because they feared this man for a number of reasons,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Zuma criticised Ramaphosa&#8217;s way of handling key issues that he said he discussed with him to maintain peace in the ANC after he resigned as head of state in February 2018.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI told him to report to the national executive committee (NEC) and suggested what I think we can do to not make the organisation fight. But he never came back to me with the NEC&#8217;s response. He disappeared until later when we had a meeting with the officials.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The former president said this made him take the decision to never meet the president.<\/p>\n<p>Zuma is leader of the newly formed MK Party which won 14.58% of votes in the recent national elections recently and obtained 58 seats in the National Assembly. He said his intention for starting his own political party was not to fight the ANC or Ramaphosa, but that he was trying to \u201crescue the ANC\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI&#8217;m a very sweet person. I&#8217;m not fighting Ramaphosa. If I was fighting Ramaphosa he wouldn&#8217;t be where he is. I have never fought Ramaphosa. I&#8217;ve only criticised where he has done wrong.\u201d Zuma said.<\/p>\n<p>It remains to be seen how the divisions will be resolved as coalition talks continue and what impact this will have on the country.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/south-africa\">South-Africa<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; South-Africa.
