In a press conference that will undoubtedly be taught in future political science courses, Fikile Mbalula, the master of simple arithmetic and complex political definitions, has enlightened journalists on the nuances of coalition governments.
“A grand coalition is the coming together of one or two political parties to form government,” he declared with the confidence of a first grader explaining that 2+2 equals 4. “But that is not what has happened here,” he said, pointing to a bewildering scenario where more than one party has indeed formed a government.
“What is that in political definition of models of government? Is that not a multiparty government of national unity?” he asked rhetorically, adding so much drama that one could almost hear the collective brain cells of the journalists struggling to keep up.
