The EFF is expected to demand President Jacob Zuma's removal as president if they were to become coalition partners with the ANC in South Africa's prime metropolitan municipalities.

In a desperate bid to hang on to power in the metros and cities that it lost in this week’s humiliating elections, the ANC is dangling carrots in front of possible coalition partners.
