The ANC of Cyril Ramaphosa, Mathews Phosa, Tokyo Sexwale, Trevor Manuel, Kgalema Motlanthe, Gwede Mantashe, Jacob Zuma is missing the point completely.
This ANC is more concerned about patronage and loyalty, than the well-being of our country. The current ANC promotes an individual above principles and values.
I know most people's fingerers are pointed at Jacob Zuma, but Zuma is not a problem because Zuma is not a system, a movement or party. Zuma is an individual. However, Zuma is promoted and protected by the liberation movement. JZ has the protection of struggle heroes that are highly respected by the community and those are Winnie Madikizela-Mandela, Cyril Ramaphosa, etc. Their silence is telling.
Until we get ANC right, or until we remove ANC from government, these shenanigans will continue.
The current leadership of ANC in totality cares nothing about the country. They have no vision for the country, but they do have a vision for ANC, "to govern until Jesus come". That is all they are concerned about.
ANC would rather protect an individual over the wellbeing of our country, merely because that individual holds the key for them to loot the government.
While some of us cry for exemplary leadership, ANC is crying for an obedient leader who would not stop them from looting the state.
The people of South Africa use to be very proud of their country regardless of colour during the Madiba time, now, the only people who are proud of this country are ANC loyalists.
Our kids are being fed JUNK, not from the media, but from the president himself. And this behaviour is condoned by ANC. ANC presented JZ as presidential candidate to South Africans knowing very well that he is sexually and financially reckless.
This then brings me to a conclusion that ANC has failed dismally as a governing party.
All our gains since 1994 are waning.
The Malemas of this world are only concerned about the nationalisation of the mines, not for the transference of the wealth to the people, but for self enrichment. For supporting Zuma, they hope he will give them green light. ANC of today is characterized by greed and hanger for power.
