The second DA premier of the Western Cape Alan Winde's first term comes to an end next year. He invites Muhammad Hussain to his office and explains why he is so focused on a no-Eskom future for the province and why he won't run for DA leader just yet.
As I approach the Western Cape provincial legislature building on the first Monday of this month, the fire alarm is ringing and people are calmly milling out of the government building.
The security woman I approach tells me that I cannot go to the office of the premier as the building is being evacuated, but adds that it seems like a drill.
