The Star Online: Dr Mamphela Ramphele’s decision to merge AgangSA with the DA was unilateral, with angry party members calling for her return to Agang – or resign. These were the sentiments of seven provincial leaders of Agang this morning when they addressed a press briefing at the party’s headquarters in Braamfontein. The group, led by Gauteng chairman Andries Tlouamma, told the media that they did not recognise the merger sealed in Cape Town on Tuesday, and that – if necessary – they were prepared to contest the national elections later this year on their own. One of the provincial leaders, Donald Tontsi, said: “We were not consulted. Dr Mamphela Ramphele remains our leader. There was no mandate from this organisation, Agang, to enter into any merger with any other political party.” IF Ramphele resigns from Agang SA , IF the party sticks to its social democratic agenda, and IF it shows it can organise effectively, Ill consider giving it my vote ... iol.co.za/news/politics/return-or-resign-ramphele-1.1638796#.Uuj2dRH8Lcs
