ANC is a pale shadow of its former noble self

It is painful to observe the fall of the ANC from grace. How does one fathom that at this time, Nkosazana DlaminiZuma could be harbouring ambitions of becoming the ANC’s president, let alone the president of this country?

To further complicate things, Jacob Zuma is said to be seeking to become chairperson of the governing party. Surely this once noble liberation movement has become a shadow of its former self.

It leaves one thinking why the Zumas and Mkhizes of this world would not let Cyril Ramaphosa have his second term as president. ANC leaders must concentrate on service delivery rather than spending time sabotaging one another. I am not trying to suggest that Ramaphosa is a saint but he is the better devil so far. Can the comrades deal with very serious issues in this country. Load-shedding, potholes, water, crime and unemployment are real issues we need solutions for.

Unfortunately the opposition parties have nothing to offer except to fuel the divisions in the ruling party. Where has the voice of reason disappeared to?
