Neither

Well, South Africa actually has 3 capitals: Pretoria is the Administrative Capital, where the civil service and most embassies are located.

Cape Town is the Legislative Capital - parliament is there

Bloemfontein is the Judicial Capital - the supreme court of appeals is there

Johannesburg is not a capital at all - is is however the economic centre of the country.

Johannesburg is not a capital. It would be like New York City is to the USA. A constitutional court is housed here as well as an enormous population of mixed races.
