Her remarks came after ANC chairperson Gwede Mantashe accused Zille of acting like a \u201cparallel president\u201d by wanting members of the party deployed to key government positions to account to her. The Sunday Times reported Mantashe warned that Zille’s actions could precipitate the collapse of the government of national unity (GNU) power-sharing deal.<\/p>\n

In an interview with TimesLIVE Premium, Losi said Zille had the right to hold DA deployees accountable to the party.<\/p>\n

\u201cI don’t know what Helen Zille would have said or done, but the DA has a responsibility to its deployees to hold them accountable,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe same applies to the IFP, the EFF and all the other parties.\u201d<\/p>\n
