ANC will suffer the consequences

The ANC and government have clearly been role models for many companies in South Africa. The latest statistic is Steinhoff, who have simulated government with smoke and mirrors chicanery and creative accounting.

It seems that even the government has been outdone.

The exception with the Steinhoff saga is that their chief has resigned, whereas the leader of our government continues to cling to power. Perhaps, however, that is a characteristic of African politics.

will be exposed.

Politically, the ANC is a spent force and will in due course suffer the consequences of its dysfunctional politics.
