ANC deputy president Paul Mashatile says the DA in Government of National Unity (GNU) is well-behaved and has not raised any issues of corruption against him.
Mashatile said the GNU was dealing precisely with matters affecting the country and not personal ones.
"We are working well with all members of GNU. There are no quarrels," he said.
Mashatile was speaking to the media on the sidelines of the ANC's 100 days in GNU reflection.
Earlier this year, DA leader John Steenhuisen initiated a corruption case against Mashatile, alleging that he has benefited from a network of nepotism and family patronage.
The situation involves a complex network of nepotism and family patronage, in which Mashatile is reportedly the primary beneficiary.
The latest controversy centres around the acquisition of a mansion in Constantia by Mashatile's son-in-law, Nonkwelo, for R28.9 million.
This purchase is particularly concerning given that Nonkwelo's company is alleged to owe the Gauteng Department of Human Settlements R7 million related to an unsuccessful housing project in Alexandria.
The DA also formally submitted a complaint to Parliament's Joint Committee on Ethics and Members’ Interests, alleging that Mashatile breached the Members’ Code of Conduct.
This complaint pertains to his failure to disclose registrable interests and accusations of wilfully or grossly negligently providing the Registrar with incorrect or misleading information.
Responding to this, Mashatile said: "The DA in government has not raised any issue about me, whether they will raise it at some point, I don't know. It is not an issue at the moment, we are focusing on governance."
He added they were all focused on making South Africa work so that people can benefit.
"We are happy that we are putting load shedding behind us, we are pushing to have transmission lines to make sure that there's generation and infrastructure is working. We are very focused," he said.
He further stated that GNU would survive for five years.
Meanwhile, Ramaphosa is set to deliver a keynote address at Luthuli House on a set-up stage outside the house to reflect on the GNU.
