On Marikana killings

BISHOP Jo Seoka has turned himself into a star of the Marikana massacre but his impartiali­ty as a man of God is in doubt. Why does the bishop go to London and create an impression that only 34 people died at Marikana? What about the 10 who most probably died at the hands of the miners? Does the bishop think their lives are cheap? – Anonymous

On ANC succession

IF NKOSAZANA DlaminiZum­a became ANC president, it would be like feeding the same corrupt mouth and the members of the ANC should be cautious when they elect their president, as some voters will abstain from voting for them in the 2019 election and they will kiss power goodbye. – Bangile Buqwana, Katlehong

On governance

OUR government does not have a clear strategy of addressing the crises we have: crime, unemployme­nt and student protests. I hope one day they will invite other stakeholde­rs to discuss these issues. –

On Gupta family

NOWHERE in the world has a foreign family had such a strangleho­ld on its host government and its political leadership.

By occupying Absa, the ANC Youth League proved clearly that they are the useful idiots ordered to fight the family’s battles.

On Blade Nzimande

IT IS a shame, after 20 years of democracy, to hear government leaders like Blade Nzimande still blame the apartheid era for his failure on education. The same chorus is sung by his master Jacob Zuma. – BLADE Nzimande is a failure as minister of higher education and training.

Colleges for agricultur­e, education and nursing were closed and now the FET colleges introduced by his department are fly-bynights. What’s going on with our government of late? –
