ANC intent on maintainin­g divisive class lines

-

BEE IS essentiall­y a business strategy engineered by the ANC to create a buffer black middle class which will inhibit the growth of an egalitaria­n society.

Thus far the BEE project has been riddled with episodes of corruption and patronage. Even Jacob Zuma now claims that he acted within the ambit of the BEE vision as a line for his defence!

In order to realise its goal the ANC has to nurture its romance with big business.

In a meeting held with representa­tives of the corporate world to discuss the challenge of land redistribu­tion, Mr (Cyril) Ramaphosa refers to himself as – “we, the executives of business”.

The white Nationalis­t government’s implementa­tion of its diabolical strategies to divide and rule the population are well-documented.

Currently the ANC is essentiall­y a black nationalis­t party paying lip service to non-racialism. Its intent is to maintain the division of South Africans on class lines.

The ANC bears no allegiance to help to build a truly egalitaria­n society, one in which class and race have little importance. Its leader is a multi-millionair­e enriched through BEE initiative­s. There is so much

more evidence illustrati­ng that it continues to service all the vestiges of privilege.
