ActionSA is one of South Africa’s most talked-about parties. If you want clear, short updates on their moves, policies, and local impact, this tag page brings them together. Founded by Herman Mashaba, ActionSA grew fast by promising cleaner governance and stronger local services. That promise shows up most where city services, corruption fights, and municipal politics collide.
You’ll see three things in our coverage: what leaders say, how policies affect ordinary people, and where the party wins or loses on the ground. We break stories into quick news updates, explainers, and local reports. That way you can follow a speech one day and read a voter reaction from a township the next.
Key figures matter. Herman Mashaba remains the most visible face, but councillors and local candidates shape how ActionSA performs in towns and metros. Watch for their municipal campaigns, coalition talks, and service delivery promises. Those are the places where votes change and lives change.
Want to understand their policy focus? ActionSA often talks about better cities, safer streets, and fewer looters in government. We give plain summaries of their policy papers and point out what’s realistic and what needs more detail. When a local council meeting affects water, electricity, or rubbish collection, you’ll find reporting that links party promises to real outcomes.
How we cover controversies: parties make headlines for both wins and mistakes. We flag clashes with other parties, coalition breakdowns, and high-stakes municipal votes. You’ll get the key facts first, then a short analysis so you can see why the story matters for your community.
Use this page to track developments. Click story headlines to read full articles and follow related tags like municipal politics, elections, and service delivery. If a post mentions a protest, budget vote, or council reshuffle, we tag it so you can find background easily.
We update this tag whenever ActionSA appears in national or local news — election lists, coalition talks, court cases, or policy announcements. Each item links to background stories and local reaction pieces so you can follow a single issue from promise to result.
Attend local meetings, contact your councillors, and check voter registration before elections. If you want to fact-check claims or propose questions for candidates, our comment threads and email tips line are the fastest ways to reach our reporters.
If you’re voting, campaigning, or just trying to figure out how a new council will affect your street, this tag page is a practical tool. We aim for short, useful updates without political jargon. Come back after major announcements, election results, or municipal hearings — we’ll have focused, local reporting to help you understand what changes and why. Bookmark this tag for quick, local ActionSA updates every week.
ActionSA has strongly opposed Johannesburg Mayor Dada Morero's suggestion to hire documented foreign nationals in the Johannesburg Metro Police Department (JMPD). Morero aimed to address language barriers in combating crime, but his proposal faced significant resistance. ActionSA and Gauteng Premier Panyaza Lesufi stressed the need for South African citizens in law enforcement roles.
