Parliament will vote on the budget on Wednesday.
The ANC has several hurdles to overcome if it wants to pass Finance Minister Enoch Godongwana’s budget speech this week.
The budget was rejected by most parties, including the DA, which is the ANC’s partner in the GNU.
Of the 400 seats in parliament, the ANC holds 159. It needs to find another 42 votes to pass the budget.
However, over the weekend, ANC spokesperson Mahlengi Bhengu-Motsiri said she is confident the budget will be passed this week.
