Loading player...
During his interview with Alec Hogg at BizNews@10, ActionSA leader Herman Mashaba laid into the cosy relationship between Big Business and the ANC - accusing corporate South Africa of feathering its own nest at the cost of society.

Mashaba says he is also driving an agenda to bring spirituality back into South African life, attacking atheist-by-conviction SACP, which he says has, through its ANC partner, created a situation where a tiny fraction of non-believers (Mashaba puts it as 2%) dictates to the vast majority who profess to be Christian, Hindu, Moslem or Jewish.
