You can’t define what you don’t experience

We have no idea about democracy because of our leaders, writes

from Mamelodi

Eric Shikobela

After 23 years of democracy, many South Africans still can’t define democracy, because you can’t define what you haven’t experienced. All they know is inequality, injustice, poverty, mind control and manipulation.

We are in this circumstance not because we can’t help ourselves, but because we have elected political leaders who have decided to steal from us the privilege of having opportunities to better our lives.

These are leaders who have only their own best interests at heart.

Leadership is not a career, but a calling that comes with great responsibilities.

South Africans must decide to have a voice in their motherland. We must also taste the sweetness of the fruits of our motherland, the sweetness we have dreamed about while others enjoyed it.

But to many of us, it is just a dream, a dream that might not materialise if we are waiting for those who are enjoying the sweetness of the wealth to pity us.

As poor South Africans, we must now make sure our voice is heard. We must make sure that we oppose anything that suffocates us. We must unite and stand together as one voice for a genuine change in our nation. Without any fear!

What will they do to us? They began torturing and killing us the moment they decided that the wealth of our country should rotate around their families and friends.
